When you said you were going away
my heart broke in two
I didn't know what to say
So I tried to write a little letter
but it didn't make me feel better
What could I say
What could I do
I didn't know how to say
goodbye to you

Oh I'm so alone
Oh I'm so alone
Why don't you come home
Why don't you come home

Well I just want you
to hold me and say that you care
And I hope you won't see
the tears in my eyes
And I wonder if we'll ever be happy again
Then I try to smile
but I'm gonna miss you when you go away
But you said I'll see you soon honey
I just have to sleep the time away

Oh I'm so alone
Oh I'm so alone
Why don't you come home
Why don't you come home

Then one day you said you would come back
and then you'll see my smile
and then we're gonna be so happy
and then you'll take my hand again
and we'll never walk alone no more
and then you'll say you'll always be mine
and everything is gonna be so fine

Oh I'm so alone
Oh I'm so alone
Why don't you come home
Why don't you come home
