Come Home Soon

lyrics

COME HOME SOON

I have watched from watch towers up on high
For the light shimmering in your eyes
For the ships arriving out of the east
Carrying my love, carry him please

He is looking afar, at the same Northern Star
Looking out of his room, at the same waning moon
Come home soon.

Crossing off the days on the calendar wall
I watch the hands turning the clock
I recall that day when you said to me
Everyone must serve their country.

I’ll be looking afar, at the same Northern Star
Looking out of my room, at the same waning moon
I’ll be home soon.

So one lonesome day when the trees were ‘a flower
My love came home in the morning hour
He had roses in hand, one dozen white
And he said my name as he looked in my eyes,

I was looking afar, you are my Northern Star
Looking out of my room, was your face in the full moon
I came home soon.

His eyes were the same clear crystal blue
But he was no longer the man I knew
He stared all day of into space
He did not hear when I called his name
I looked all day and I tried to find
But the light was gone
Gone from his eyes.

You are further afar than that lonesome Northern Star
I’m alone as the moon, and you’re here
Here in our room.
Please come home soon.
