HE AIN'T COMING HOME

You took him for granted
But he didn’t care
Some nights you’d leave him
When he needed you there

So he chose to go dear
But you didn’t know
How much it’d hurt you, watching him go

He lurks in the shadows
Just outside your view
You can’t seem to shake him
Whatever you do

And he makes you feel lonely
When you’re not alone
You got the blues, he ain’t coming home

It sure hurts your ego
You must feel regret
You lost the one thing
The best lover you ever met

If only you knew that
When he was around
But you blew that one chance now he’s out of town

He lurks in the shadows
Just outside your view
You can’t seem to shake him
Whatever you do

And he makes you feel lonely
When you’re not alone
You got the blues, he ain’t coming home

You still keep his picture
‘Cause you can’t forget
While you sit alone
He’s moved on with it

You thought you had everything
In the palm of the hand
But he slipped away and you can’t find a man

He lurks in the shadows
Just outside of view
You can’t seem to shake him
Whatever you do

And he makes you feel lonely
When you’re not alone
You got the blues, he ain’t coming home
You got the blues, he ain’t coming home
You got the blues
And he ain’t coming home
