The water rushes against my front side
It's coming up towards high tide
I'll hold you steady while I can, while I still can

But you never know what will come tonight
and heaven knows I'm in its lights
I'm the ticking clock, the set alarm that you've so long relied upon

Just stay right where you are
Just stay right where you are

[Chorus]
Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!
Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!

And the daylight is growing scarce
but sunshine is in my head
and I'll shine it, I'll shine
it everywhere I go

I can hear the angels calling me
and my father's voice across the sea
The words float in on wisps of wind
They settle and they start again
They say, “Stay right where you are, just stay right where you are.”

Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!
Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!

Stay right where you are
My dear, won't you watch me walk right off this pier
And go on and on up to the sun?
We'll leave all things behind
Just follow me, you're doing great
Just don't step out of time

Down to, down to the watershed
Down past the river bed
Where we used to wonder what lay beyond here
And out past, out past the signals sent
Sent by the scientists from the largest satellite dishes

Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!
Whoa, just come on home!
Just come on home! Home!
