[Verse 1]
Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, among the blessed?
Mother, are you waiting? Father, are you pacing?
I'm coming home
[Verse 2]
I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, in my Sunday best
Mother, are you anxious? Father, are you gracious?
I'm coming home
[Bridge]
I've been away too long
For so long you've been strong
I've been away too long
I know that it was wrong
But I'm coming home
[Verse 3]
Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, have I passed the test?
Mother, are you praying? Father, I am saying
I'm coming home
Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, among the blessed?
Mother, are you waiting? Father, are you pacing?
I'm coming home
[Verse 2]
I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, in my Sunday best
Mother, are you anxious? Father, are you gracious?
I'm coming home
[Bridge]
I've been away too long
For so long you've been strong
I've been away too long
I know that it was wrong
But I'm coming home
[Verse 3]
Well I'm knocking on Death's door
Will I take my rest, have I passed the test?
Mother, are you praying? Father, I am saying
I'm coming home
