I'll Be Coming Home [Tommy Shaw]

I'll Be Coming Home 

Written by Tommy Shaw

Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw

If I don't die, I'll be hung in the middle
If it ain't right, I'd rather be wrong
I'm on my knees, Lord spare me a little
When they lower me down, I'll be coming home

I've been too long on this lonely mountain
Seasons change, unlike my heart
It's frozen still in the dead of summer
Tonight I will be coming home

Please wait for me
I'll be coming home
Won't you pray for me
I'll be coming home

Seeds won't grow in the cold dark shadow
Sun can't shine across Gulver Hill
The days go by, and I'm warm just knowing
I keep my faith while time stands still

Please wait for me
I'll be coming home
Won't you pray for me
I'll be coming home

Interpretation

When I die, I know I will be going to Heaven, and when that happens, I'll be coming home.
