[Verse 1] When you and I were torn apart, You lost your way, I lost my heart. I watched you turn and walk away, And felt my whole world fade away. [Verse 2] We dreamed we’d never say goodbye, We’d stay together, you and I. We made our promises back then, We’d never be apart again. [Verse 3] But time was cruel, and fate unkind, You had to leave our world behind. You left too soon, you went away, And I had nothing left to say. [Verse 4] Without you, home was cold and still, Each lonely day was hard to fill. Your memory carried me along, Your love within me kept me strong. [Verse 5] We found each other in my dreams, So close to me you always seemed. And every letter that you wrote, I read through tears of love and hope. [Verse 6] I wondered where you were each night, And prayed that you would be all right. Though you were half a world away, I called your name both night and day. [Verse 7] I loved you more than words could say, I couldn’t bear you far away. The ache you left within my heart, Still burned whenever we’re apart. [Bridge] Then came the day I’d waited for, The miles between us were no more. The darkness slowly turned to light, And life began to feel so right. [Pre-Chorus] You never left this heart of mine, Though we were lost in space and time. And when you came back home to me, My captive heart was finally free. [Chorus] You came back home, I held you tight, The dark was gone, the world was bright. I looked into your eyes, and then— We came alive, alive again. [Final Chorus] You came back home, I held you tight, We left the lonely years behind. I looked into your eyes, and then— We came alive, alive again. [Outro] After the tears, after the pain, After believing love remained, You came back home, and there and then— We came alive… alive again.
