Cian Ducrot
Coming Home
Lyrics From TRNSMT Festival & Portal Performance

[Verse 1]
East side of Cork's where I grew up
But lately I don't visit much
Never met half my family
Now I'm some name, already thinking of me
From Bantry Bay to Skibbereen
The summer months will favour me
First broken heart, oh, I remember it
Drinking cans just to escape it

[Pre-Chorus]
(One, two, three—)
Well, I miss those days of smoking weed (Hey)
A pack of cigarettes between our teeth
We were kissing in the back of your car (Hey)
There was something so special about that time
And I miss the simplicity of it all (Hey)
And my friends are all happy with small town jobs
Now I'm chasing the dream that I don't believe (Hey)

[Chorus]
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
[Verse 2]
So much is different, but nothing's changed
And all my friends are still the same
Calling strangers by their names
I'd love one more day at school again
The photographs and the memories
These streets are where I cut my teeth
So, I walk down every road again
With a chicken roll and my best friend

[Pre-Chorus]
(One, two, three—)
Well, I miss those days of smoking weed (Hey)
A pack of cigarettes between our teeth
We were kissing in the back of your car (Hey)
There was something so special about that time
And I miss the simplicity of it all (Hey)
And my friends are all happy with small town jobs
Now I'm chasing the dream that I don't believe (Hey)

[Chorus]
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
[Bridge]
There's no other place I've known
Nowhere I'd rather go
Take me where the primrose grows
Take me where the black water flows
Bring me to kiss the stone
Run through the fields I know
Give me the view of Cobh
How I miss the air at home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home

[Chorus]
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home

[Post-Chorus]
Tell my mother I'm coming home
Tell my brother I'm coming home
(Home)
(Home)
(Home)
(Home)
[Outro]
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Mm-mm, mm
