As I sit, thinking about how you have changed me over these last two years, I listen to my favorite music, a distraction at best, I wish, anyway. So many songs fit the words to the actions, if you will, however, this one, this old Ozzy song I used to listen to in high~school, from "Diary of a Madman", the title, how apropos, this is the one that tells our story... Times have changed, I ain't the same, times go by, you could've been a better friend to me, you took me in and you drove me out, you had me hypnotized, lost and found, turned around, the fire in your eyes, you told me lies, you made me cry but I can't stand to say goodbye, I could be right, I could be wrong, it hurts so bad, selfish love, the ride before the fall, but I'm gonna take this heart of stone, I've seen your face a thousand times, every day we've been apart, but I don't care about the sunshine (your wicked darkness), I'm comin' home...
"Mama, I'm Coming Home"
[Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde, Lemmy Kilmister]
Times have changed and times are strange
Here I come, but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home
Times gone by, seems to be
You could have been a better friend to me
Mama, I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes
You made me cry, you told me lies
But, I can't stand to say goodbye
Mama, I'm coming home
I could be right, I could be wrong
It hurts so bad, it's been so long
Mama, I'm coming home
Selfish love, yeah, we're both alone
The ride before the fall, yeah.
But I'm gonna take this heart of stone
I just got to have it all.
I've seen your face a hundred times,
Everyday we've been apart
I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'cause mama,
Mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had the hypnotised, yeah.
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes
I've seen your face a thousand times
Everyday we've been apart
And I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'cause mama,
Mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Times have changed and times are strange
Here I come, but I ain't the same
Mama, I'm coming home
Times gone by, seems to be
You could have been a better friend to me
Mama, I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had me hypnotized
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes
You made me cry, you told me lies
But, I can't stand to say goodbye
Mama, I'm coming home
I could be right, I could be wrong
It hurts so bad, it's been so long
Mama, I'm coming home
Selfish love, yeah, we're both alone
The ride before the fall, yeah.
But I'm gonna take this heart of stone
I just got to have it all.
I've seen your face a hundred times,
Everyday we've been apart
I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'cause mama,
Mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
You took me in and you drove me out
Yeah, you had the hypnotised, yeah.
Lost and found and turned around
By the fire in your eyes
I've seen your face a thousand times
Everyday we've been apart
And I don't care about the sunshine, yeah
'cause mama,
Mama, I'm coming home
I'm coming home
