about

A song about losing loved ones. Written for and dedicated to Chris Wheatley and Margaret Brink

lyrics

There's a room in a house where we once felt safe
There's a comfortable embrace
There's a thing that must be done
But it cannot be seen by anyone but us

There's a tale that must be told
About a will to leave when the body's old
And the only thing to say is

Don't wait up for me
I'm never coming home

There's a boy that we used to know
With a giant heart and a loving soul
There's a thing that we need to know
That a soul will tell you when it's time to go
And he knows, he said

Don't wait up for me
I'm never coming home
And he flew away

There's a sound coming from outside
And I'm feeling scared just like a little child
Ooh.. Cos I know

He's never coming home
