[Verse 1] Golden sparks drift in the midnight air, Your laughter lingers though you’re not there. We carved our names in that old oak tree, Now I count the days till you come back to me. The embers glow like your gentle eyes, Under constellations in the velvet skies. Your hand in mine by the crackling flame, Since you’ve been gone, nothing feels the same. [Chorus] Come back soon, my wandering heart, Come back soon, don’t stay apart. These summer nights are breaking in two, Without your voice, without the sound of you. Come back soon, I’m calling your name, Come back soon, I’m not the same. The fire still burns but it’s turning cold, Without your story here to be told. [Verse 2] I saved your favorite place by the stones, Where we’d sit and dream of the great unknown. Your old guitar by the leaning pine, Echoes of chords in the taste of wine. The moon remembers the songs we’d sing, How a single note made my heart grow wings. Every shadow here holds your face, In this quiet, holy, empty place. [Chorus] Come back soon, my wandering heart, Come back soon, don’t stay apart. These summer nights are breaking in two, Without your voice, without the sound of you. Come back soon, I’m calling your name, Come back soon, I’m not the same. The fire still burns but it’s turning cold, Without your story here to be told. [Bridge] Letters in the morning mail, Can’t touch the warmth of your fading trail. Through the woods where we used to roam, Come back, come back, come back home. [Final Chorus] Come back soon, the stars still shine, Waiting here for your hand in mine. By the fire’s low and amber glow, Come back soon, I miss you so. Come back soon, my wandering heart, Come back soon, don’t stay apart. The flames still dance, the night’s still young, Our sweetest songs are still unsung. Come back soon, my restless moon, Come back soon, come back soon.
