I'm Coming Home to Stay
Embracing Homecoming Love: A Promise of Forever
Lyrics
I'll be coming home soon baby please
I plan to return home soon, my love, so please anticipate my arrival
Be waiting outside your door
You can expect me to be waiting outside your door when I arrive
I'll be coming home soon baby please
I reiterate my intention to come home soon, urging you to be ready
Be waiting outside your door
Just like before, I want you to be waiting outside your door for me
When I get back with you baby you know
Upon my return, I assure you that I won't part ways with you again, my love
I ain't going to leave any more
My commitment to staying with you is firm; I won't leave again
When I get on that train baby
Once I board the train, my love, it won't be much time until I'm with you
You'll know it won't be long
When I embark on the journey by train, you can expect my swift arrival
When I get on that train baby

You'll know it won't be long

Little darling I've had
