Come Back Home (acoustic demo) Lyrics by Lisa Loeb

The Purple Tape

2007

[Verse 1]
Come back home where the three orange suns
They set in the bottom of the globe, yeah now
Come back home where the three purple moons
They set in the bottom of the water, yeah now
You know that I've been there, and
I think you should beware. that
You know they all had faces too...
Like me
[Pre-Chorus]
Now Hadrian's wall, will not return
It's crumbled to the land of nowhere;
No one sees it, no one hears it anymore
And it scrapes my hands across the pavement
Just to think about it
Like the world around you does
[Chorus]
And you put on your crown, and your emeralds, and your rubies
And you put on your crown
Yeah, you put on your crown, and your emeralds and your rubies
But you can't run away like Dorothy and her dog
Put on your crown, and your emeralds, and your rubies
And you put on your crown
Yeah, you put on your crown, and your emeralds and your rubies
But you can't run away, just to come back
Come back
[Verse 2]
Come back home where the blue lights glow, and
The red ones glow 'til tomorrow, yeah now
Come back home where the three purple moons
They set in the bottom of the water, yeah now
You know that I've been there, and
I think you should beware; that
You know they all had faces too
Like me
[Bridge]
When the wrinkles in your wrist are yelling
"It won't hurt a bit!", but you know it will
'Cause tears and excuses wipe you off your feet
Yeah, tears and excuses wipe you off your feet
Like the world around you does
And it wipes you off your feet, like the world around you does
And it scrapes your hands across the pavement
Like the world around you does
And you wish the world would
Yeah, you wish the world would change
And you wish the world would
Yeah, you wish the world would change
Change, change
[Pre-Chorus]
Now Hadrian's wall, will not return
It's crumbled to the land of nowhere;
No one sees it, no one hears it anymore
And it scrapes my hands across the pavement
Just to think about it
Like the world around you does
[Chorus]
And you put on your crown, and your emeralds, and your rubies
And you put on your crown
Yeah, you put on your crown, and your emeralds and your rubies
But you can't run away like Dorothy and her dog
Put on your crown, and your emeralds, and your rubies
Put on your crown
And you put on your crown, and your emeralds and your rubies
But you can't run away, just to come back
Come back
Come back
