She got out of town
on a railway, new york bound
took all except my name
another alien out on broadway
some things in this world you just can't change
some things you can't see until it gets too late
[chorus]
baby, baby, baby
when all your love is gone
who will save me from all i'm up against out in this world
and maybe, maybe, maybe
you'll find something that's enough to keep you
but if the bright lights don't receive you
then you should turn yourself around and come on home
I've got a hole in me now
yeah, i've got a scar i can talk about
she keeps a picture of me
in her apartment, in the city
some things in this world, man, they don't make sense
some things you don't need until they leave you
then they're things that you miss
[chorus]
Let that city take you in
come on home
let that city spit you out
come on home
let that city take you down, yeah
for god sakes, turn around
[chorus]
Yeah, come on home
baby, baby, baby, baby
come on home
yeah, come on home
yeah, come on home
yeah, come on home
baby, baby, baby, baby
come on home
