Lyrics
[instrumental intro] [verse 1] I've made a lot of stupid choices in my life.
Ignorance controlled me.
Thought I knew it all.
Always had to be right.
Took my family for granted.
Then I left them behind!
[verse 2] Walked right out the door.
No "goodbyes".
Looking back at it now, it was the biggest mistake.....
of my life.
[chorus] Momma, can you hear me?
I wanna come home.
Papa, I'm sorry.
I wanted to do this alone.
I didn't know what I was doing.
I thought that I had grown.
But reality was all consuming.
Please? Will you allow me to atone?
[instrumental] [chorus] [chorus] Momma, can you hear me?
I wanna come home.
Papa, I'm sorry.
I wanted to do this alone.
I didn't know what I was doing.
I thought that I had grown.
But reality was all consuming.
Please? Will you allow me to
atone
[bridge] I know that I have hurt you.
Caused you both so much pain.
I'm sorry for what I've put you through.
That's my shame.
Momma?... Papa?
Can you ever forgive me?
[hook] I see the pain in your eyes when you look at me now.
It's all my fault but I promise, I'll make it up somehow!
[chorus] Momma, can you hear me?
I wanna come home.
Papa, I'm sorry.
I wanted to do this alone.
I didn't know what I was doing.
I thought that I had grown.
But reality was all consuming.
Please? Will you allow me to atone?
[outro] I wanna come home.
