When You Come Home - Mark Schultz
First day of recess, they all laughed at me when I fell off the swing set and scraped up my knee. The nurse called my momma to say I'd be late, when she gave me the phone I could hear momma say, "I'm so sorry, son, though I think you're so brave," she was smilin' when she said, *Chorus* "When you come home no matter how far run through the door and into my arms It's where you are loved It's where you belong I will be here When you come home" I waved good-bye through the window as I boarded the plane my first job in Houston was waiting for me Found a letter from momma tucked in my coat as I flew down the runway I smiled when she wrote, "I'll miss you son, you'll be so far away I'll be waiting for the day..." *Chorus* "When you come home no matter how far run through the door and into my arms it's where you are loved it's where you belong I will be here When you come home" "I don't think she can hear you now," the doctor told me. "Your mother is fading. It's best that you leave." so I whispered "I love you" then turned away but I stopped at the door when I heard momma say "I love you son, but they're callin' me away. Promise me before I go..." *Chorus* "When you come home no matter how far run through the door and into my arms it's where you are loved it's where you belong I will be here When you come home"
