EVERYBODY'S ASKIN' WHERE YOU ARE

AND THE TRUTH IS I CANNOT LIE

WHEN YOU DROVE OFF IN YOUR BEST FRIEND'S CAR

I WAS SURE YOU'D BE BACK THAT NIGHT

WELL I USED TO COUNT THE DAYS

WHEN I THOUGHT IT WAS A PHASE

BUT I'M FREAKIN' OUT ALONE

AND I WANT TO KNOW

Y DON'T U COME HOME?



EVERYBODY'S WONDERIN' WHERE YOU BEEN

AND IT'S HARD JUST TO JUSTIFY

YOU'RE HORIZONTAL AT THE DROP OF A HINT

AND I GIVE UP ON ASKIN' WHY

WHILE I'M MEDICATIN' HERE

NURSING SOMEONE ELSE'S BEER

I KEEP LISTENING FOR THE PHONE

AND I WANT TO KNOW

Y DON'T U COME HOME?



YOU'VE BEEN RUNNING SINCE I SAID I LOVE YOU

AFRAID TO ADMIT YOU'RE SCARED

SO A STRANGER TAKES A TURN ABOVE YOU

AND NOBODY HAS TO CARE

BUT I KEEP ON TRYING

WHY DON'T YOU COME



I NEED ADVICE SO I GO TO SEE THE WISE MAN

WANNA TALK IT OUT BUT YOU'RE GIVIN' ME THE HEISMAN

KEPT AT ARM'S LENGTH, BUILDIN' MY STRENGTH

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE STAMINA AND NOT THE SIZE MAN

COSMO, GLAMOUR, AND TISSUES

READING UP ON YOUR UNRESOLVED BACK ISSUES

COULD IT BE YOUR FATHER? COULD IT BE YOUR MOTHER?

IT COULD BE ANY OF YOUR INSIGNIFICANT OTHERS

SO WHATDOIGOTSTODO?

YOU PLAY THE FLUTE TOO!

AND WHEN I COME TO THINK OF IT I ONLY SEE YOU

BUT ANY WAY YOU SLICE IT, IT'S A CATCH-22

AAAAA-ITE



THERE'S A RINGING IN MY EAR

MAYBE I DON'T WANNA HEAR

THE TRUTH FROM YOUR TWILIGHT ZONE

I JUST WANNA KNOW

Y DON'T U COME HOME
