[Verse 1]
D Bm
Tomorrow i`ll be coming home i hope to find you all alone,

With open arms to greet me at the door,

You cried as i was led away it seems like only yesterday,

But after all these years i can`t be sure.

[Bridge 1]

While i`ve been dreaming dreams of you,

Not knowing what your going through,

I prayed that you`d remember me,
Em
But i know life goes on you see.

I broke your heart the day i broke the law,

I broke your heart the day i broke the law.

The man you knew don`t hurt no more my tears were shed behind locked door,
