And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

When I was a young man and anything was possible

I dreamed of things and ways and means

And talked about a way for us to go

And I was young and so in love and thought that I was so invincible

Back then I dreamed a dream that anything was possible

And now that it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

When you were born it was a different world so long ago

And you were raised to tell the truth or you'd wind up way down below

And now there's nothing here for you to do and nothing left to know

And you believed that anything was possible

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

Coming home

It's only time and time will find a way to win

Just when you think you've found the strength to live again

Why don't you tell me something that I don't already know?

It's only time and time will try to slow you down

Just when you think you've got it made and gaining ground

Why don't you tell me something that I don't already know?

Why can't you see the plan?

Why won't you talk to me?

Why don't you understand?

Why do you all refuse to see?

That when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

When you were young and anything was possible

And you thought that you were so invincible

The world and everything in it was yours and you

Swore that there was nothing that you didn't know

And now you know differently things

Are just like everyone else you know

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?

And when it's finally over

Won't you try coming home?
