Whoever said you can’t go back
Whoever sold you a lie like that
Whoever said you could fall too far
Did you forget whose child you are

Well, truth is I've been counting the days
'Til My tear stained eyes see your beautiful face
And I leave every light on to lead you home
So come home, come back home

Love stands waiting for your return
Love stands hoping you'll come back from wherever you were
When you can't stand on your own anymore
Love stands waiting
So what are you waiting for?

Guilt steals any hope of your return
But grace heals all the bridges burned
So drop that heavy load you bare
Yesterday's behind you, so leave it there

Love stands waiting for your return
Love stands hoping you'll come back from wherever you were
And when you can't stand on your own anymore
Love stands waiting
So what are you waiting for?

Truth is I've been counting the days
'Til My tear stained eyes see your beautiful face
And I leave every light on to lead you home
So come home, come back home

Don't you know how much I love you, come back home
Don't you ever stop believing

Love stands waiting for your return, come home
My love stands hoping you'll come back from wherever you were
And when you can't stand on your own anymore
I'll be the arms that lift you up off the floor
Love stands waiting, oh
So what are you waiting for?
