Lyrics Homecoming - Matthew West

Baby had a smile, stretched from ear to ear
She'd been counting down the days
Friday night was almost here
Baby's first homecoming

Daddy took her shopping to find the perfect dress
Like a model on the runway
He watched her twirl, said "my girl you're growing up too fast"
Not ready for homecoming

There she goes
There she goes

She was driving down the highway
Probably dreaming 'bout her date
Lost control around the curve and everything would change
On September 28th
The night before homecoming

Next thing the doctor saying "There's nothing we can do"
Family falls down praying right there in the waiting room
"God say it isn't true"
All of their tears running

There she goes
There she goes
There she goes
There she goes

They laid her to rest
In that pretty red dress
I swear the clouds rolled away
When her mama stood to say
"This was her homecoming"

Well the way I'll always see it
You said goodbye too soon
But these days you're the reason why
I'm living like I know we're all just passing through
On the way to our homecoming
On the way to our homecoming
Our homecoming

Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home
Welcome home

Welcome home
Welcome home (Welcome home)
Welcome home
Welcome home
