I set the table
I poured the wine
I heard a sound
I watched for signs
I got up and looked around
Not another soul was foundI ate in silence
I cleaned my plate
I prayed for something
To seal my fate
Though I wanted it so much
Not a single drop was touched
Elijah Elijah
When are you coming home
Elijah Elijah
You know that I hate to be alone
Elijah ElijahYou're someone I've always knownI remembered
To open the door
Wind started blowin'
Across the floor
And then a rustle
Against the screen
But it was just a magazineElijah Elijah
When are you coming home
Elijah Elijah
You know that I hate to be alone
Elijah Elijah
You're someone I've always knownI've been waiting for you
(Waiting, waiting)
No one knows it but you
ElijahI was happy
Back in my youth
'Til someone told me you can't
Hide the truth
I can't predict what is to be
But he'll be coming
Back to meElijah Elijah
When are you coming home
Elijah Elijah
You know that I hate to be alone
Elijah ElijahYou're someone I've always known.
