Haven't seen you 'round here for awhile 
 I mentioned your name and i saw him smile 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 Every little one to him belongs 
 You might be weak but he is strong 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
    So come on home, come on home 
 Though you left, he couldn't forget 
 Just just come on home   
 Love and pain you've known to well 
 Been backed right down to the gates of hell 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 But mercy's reach is within your grasp 
 You'll find it where you found it last 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting 
 Sittin' on the front porch waiting   
 Can you see his eyes, they search for you 
 Can you feel his cries, they long for you 
 They long for you, they long for you
