Lyrics: Eric Clapton. Back Home. Run Home to Me.

We went down to the seaside
One cold frosty morning
Just to go out for a drive
For an hour or two

I walked down to the water
With my love and our baby
Watched the waves breaking in
We're enjoying the view

Then I heard myself saying
"We should do this more often
To watch the little ones playing
On that bright stony shore"

And I wished deep down in my heart
That we could stay here forever
In these sweet simple moments
That will come back no more

When it's 3 o'clock in the morning
And something scared you from your breast
I will gently rock you in my arms
And lay your little head on my chest

And when you run, from my arms
Know we'll always find you
And when you run, out of loving
And run home to me, run home to me

Run home to me
Run home to me

And the years fly by so quickly
Like a plane before my eyes
And you've grown up into a woman
Before I had time, had time to realize

And then you'll run, from my arms
We'll always come and find you
And when you run, out of loving
Then run home to me

Lord, when you run, run out of my arms
We will always come and find you
And when you run, out of loving
Then run home to me, run home to me

Run home
Run home to me
