Home To Stay?

She calls to say she’s coming back
But please don’t ask her for the facts
Pretty soon I see her standing in the pouring rain

She looks so lonely and confused
But all I say is ‘How are you?’
She takes my hand, and I feel a little stab of pain

I don’t know
What made her want to run away
I don’t know the reasons
I’m just glad she’s home to stay?

Was I drinking, was I bad?
Could I not see she was sad?     
Was my love like the loving that it used to be?

As the years went passing by
Did she still look me in the eye?
Was her mind on another who was not like me?

I don’t know
What made her want to run away
I don’t know the reasons
I’m just glad she’s home to stay?
