New Edition - Home Again Lyrics






I've been away for much too long
I hope you still feel I belong
I didn't mean to cause you pain
Nothin' to lose, much more to gain
So can you stand the rain?

Just when I thought that we were through
I found my way right back to you
I can't change what happened in the past
And won't promise this time it would last
Can you stand the rain?
(Can you stand the rain?)

So on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go
`Home Again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again

I stand here all alone confused
'Cause I like living with or without you
Will our story end
Like a fairy tail
Or just another heartbreak
Only time will tell
So on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go
`Home Again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again
(Home Again)

No matter where
No matter how
No turning back
No stopping now
'Cause we may never ever pass this way again
Just give me one more chance
Let me come home again
So on the story goes
Heaven only knows
The road of life will turn
A lesson we will learn
And no one knows but fate how we'll end
People who know
They say you can't go
`Home Again
But if you ask me
I'm happy to be home again

[Spoken:]
So now you kinda understand the story, right
Me and the fellas trying to bring this back together
Just like old times
Ya'll know when it used to be Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph, Johnny
Take it back like that
So fellas, let's take this record home
And this time, let's stay there

  63. A.... ....

    don't judge but everytime I listen to this song I cry

  64. E.... ....

    I feel like bobby is talking to New Edition in his verse.

    E.... ....

    Elmatatan6890 He is. Now in concert he points to the bros and has changed the lyrics to ' I can promise this time it will last.' They are all singing about New Edition. I believe Johnny is basically saying he loves being an NE member AND a solo artist.

    E.... ....

    trebo12 It makes me like this song even more thanks 😊😊

    E.... ....

    Elmatatan6890 yes

  71. M.... B....

    I was one when this came out and I still have the CD lol

  72. l.... m....

    this brings real tears cuz i grew up during the 80s born in 83. when i first heard this shit ywars ago i broke down its so true

  73. M.... G....
