Dave don't you understand
That all her tears
No, they are not for me
Or for all the years that I've stood by her side
Lord knows I've tried
No, not even one of those tears
For me she cries

No, I am not perfect
Not even close
No, I'm not the one
That her heart choose

And I haven't been in love
I needed love
You will never be alone
For you have my love enough to hold back the fires
That rage that burn you placed our trust upon a pile
Let it be known that I was always on your side
Let it be known that you were always on my mind

I won't be coming home tonight
I won't be coming home
I won't be coming home tonight
I won't be coming home
I won't be coming home tonight
I won't be coming home
I won't be coming home tonight
I won't be coming home
