How many years have we been like this
How many days have we had to risk
How many calls have we had to miss
How many flowers

Longstanding misunderstanding
Nothing's fully known
Can't remember what I was planning
All I know is I want you home

Parking cars and shopping lists
Baseball cards and business trips
Holidays and arguments
Losing hours

Longstanding misunderstanding
Nothing's fully known
Can't remember what I was demanding
All I know is I want you home

How many days have we been like this
How many hours

Longstanding misunderstanding
No one's fully grown
I kept a light burning on the landing
Found you where I left you standing
I can't remember what I was demanding
All I know is I want you
All I know is I want you
All I know is I want you home
