COMING HOME
Heartfelt Journey: Finding Redemption in 'Coming Home' by Mike Martinez
Lyrics
Lord I'm Coming Home
Expressing a desire to return to a place or state that holds significance, possibly seeking comfort or solace.
It's been a long time coming and I can barely hold
Acknowledging a prolonged period of anticipation, with emotional difficulty in enduring the wait.
Lord I should've known
Reflecting on a realization that should have been apparent earlier, indicating a sense of regret or self-blame.
I wasted all these years just hoping she'd let him go
Regretting the investment of time in a futile hope that someone would let go of another person.
Told myself that I'd be better off alone
Deciding to be alone, believing it to be a better option despite emotional struggles.
That I'll have her when I'm older
Expressing a belief that the desired person will be available in the future when one is older.
Told myself that I could make it on my own
Convincing oneself of independence and strength in facing challenges alone.
That it'd only make me bolder
Expecting that facing difficulties alone will lead to personal growth and increased courage.
I had a feeling that she'd be the one for me
Having a strong intuition that a particular person is meant to be a significant romantic partner.
That we'd someday be in love girl
Envisioning a future where love between the speaker and the mentioned person will blossom.
I guess it really was just never meant to be
Realizing that the envisioned romantic relationship was never destined to happen.
Keep on living in my head girl
Lamenting the persistence of thoughts and emotions related to the desired person.
I don't know what I should do to make it right
Expressing uncertainty about the appropriate actions to rectify the situation and seek forgiveness.
I tell myself that everything will turn out fine
Seeking reassurance by convincing oneself that things will eventually improve.
And hope that one day I can make it out alive
Longing for a future where the speaker can overcome challenges and find happiness.
While I just watch her dancing right there by his side
Observing the desired person dancing with someone else, causing emotional pain and helplessness.
I don't know what I should do to make it right
Repeating the uncertainty about the appropriate course of action to make amends.
I tell myself that everything will turn out fine
Reiterating the hope that circumstances will eventually improve and bring relief.
And hope that one day I can make it out alive
Expressing the desire for a future where the speaker can overcome challenges and survive.
While I just watch her dancing right there by his side
Revisiting the emotional pain of watching the desired person with someone else.
Lord I'm Coming Home
Repeating the expression of the desire to return to a significant place or state for comfort.
It's been a long time coming and I can barely hold
Restating the prolonged anticipation and the difficulty in enduring the wait.
Lord I should've known
Reiterating the sense of regret or self-blame for not realizing something sooner.
I wasted all these years just hoping she'd let him go
Repeating the regret over investing time in futile hope for a desired person to let go of someone else.
