Heard you pa**ed south of Baltimore,
Wondering if you watched the ships roll in
Will you stay up 'til the dawn's early light
Do you ever wonder how I've been
Postcard memories only paint a picture
Of how you are in one place at a time
I need you now more than ever before
I'm waiting for you, come back home
It don't matter where you go when you're young
When you're trying to outrun the past
Like a ghost you travel through my dreams
I only see you through the looking gla**
Postcard memories only paint a picture
Of how you are in one place at a time
I need you now more than ever before
I'm waiting for you, come back home
I swear I forget most of what I learned
As the earth moves from morning to night
But one thing I know I'll always remember
Your eyes shining in the morning light
I thought I saw you out there dancing on the ocean
I thought I heard you singing too-ra-loo-ra-lie
I wanna be wherever you are
I'm waiting for you, come back home
I need you now more than ever before
I'm waiting for you, come back home
