Bring him home, bring him home, bring him in
I've been here many times close to tears
We brought a bunch of reserves
I'm scared the earth won't keep
Safe, warm, shrouded in the dark
We bought a shed load of coal, my family home

Bring him home, bring him home, bring him in
We bought a bunch of reserves
I'm scared the earth won't keep

Bring him home, bring him home, bring him in
I've been here many times close to tears
Bring him home, bring him home, bring him in
I've been here many times close to tears

I want to see the beauty in the world
I want to feel a kinder guiding hand
I want to see the world as Jesus Christ
Or Gandhi or Buddha, Mohammad, whatever and it's done

The message is the message is a fraud and it's done
The question is which question you are asking is a dud
And I'm just a mannequin with your love tacked on
And this is all a failure from the moment that you're gone
This is all I've got from the moment that you're gone

I need to see the health return to you
I need to see forgiveness in your eyes
I need to let you know that you're the only shining light
That keeps my view of heaven as unnecessary slums
And this is all just a failure from the moment that you're gone
