[Verse 1]
My daddy told me, "Always be strong, son
Don't you ever cry
You find the pretty girls, and then you love them
Then you say goodbye"

[Chorus]
I never dreamed that you would leave me
But now you're gone
I never dreamed that I would miss you
Woman, won't you come back home?

[Verse 2]
I never dreamed that you could hurt me
And leave me blue
I've had a thousand, maybe more
Never one like you

[Chorus]
I never dreamed I could feel so empty
But now I'm down
I never dreamed that I would beg you
Woman, I need you now

[Verse 3]
It seems to me I took your love for granted
It feels to me that this time I was wrong, so wrong
Oh, Lord, how I feel so lonely
I say, woman, won't you come back home?
[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
I tried to do what my daddy taught me, but I think he knew
Someday that I would find one woman like you
I never dreamed it could feel so good, Lord
That two could be one
I never knew about sweet love
So, woman, won't you come back home?
Oh, baby, won't you come back home?
