Welcome Home - The Lucksmiths

Her letter said in three weeks

She’ll be coming down from Sydney

And if it wasn’t asking too much

Could she spend a few days with me

But it’s miserable this time of year

Don’t visit, you’ll regret it

But if you must insist on coming

Then I guess I’ll have to wear it

We can sit around all afternoon

Inside this tiny café

Surround ourselves with people who

Are lonely too, but nowadays

This lifestyle’s wearing thin

And I can’t foresee a change

Is this hopelessness a consequence

Of living in this place?

Do you remember when we were happy?

I want to smile again

Do you remember when we were happy?

I want to smile again

Smile in Melbourne again

Welcome home

You’ve been gone far too long

Welcome home

You’ve been gone far too long

Welcome home
