Lyrics Sonny Come Home - David Ackles

Sonny Come Home

These woods I’ve been here before
but someones changed the color of the leaves
not leaves not green anywhere
what is that hanging in the trees
bits of glass, broken
bicycle wheels, broken
old toys, old wounds
broken, broken
why did i come here on my way home
i heard a voice calling, «sonny»
the tables set the waters warm
come home, come home, come home
this road, i’ve been here before
but wheres the rock i used to climb
no rock no road anymore
who are those people waiting there in line
throwing stones, strangers
throwing knives, strangers
old friends, old loves, strangers, strangers
why did i come here on my way home
i heard a voice calling, «sonny»
the tables set, the waters warm
come home, come home, come home
this house i’ve been here before
but theres no answer when i knock
just wind, no sound anymore
my key wont fit into the lock
old ruins, empty
fireplace, empty
cold walls, cold rooms, empty, empty
why did i come here on my way home
inside a voice calls me, «sonny»
the tables set, the waters warm
come home, come home, i hear you, i hear you
but i can’t come home
