"Come On Home" Lyrics:

Dark clouds are comin' in, like an army
Soon the sky will open up and disarm me
You will go, just like you've gone before
One sad soldier off to war
With enemies that only you can see

Dishes stacked, the table cleared
It's always like the scene of the last supper here
You speak so cryptically, that's not news to me
The flood is here it will carry you
And I've got work to do

Come on home,
The team you're hitched to has a mind of its own
It's just the forces of your past you've fought before
Come back here and shut the door
I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your trouble

There is fire, there is lust
Some will trade it all for someone they could trust
There's a bag of silver for a box of nails
It's so simple the betrayal
Though it's known to change the world and what's to come

Just come on home
The team you're hitched to has a mind of its own
It's just the forces of your past you've fought before
Don't you recognize them anymore
I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your trouble

There's the given, and the expected
I count my blessings while I eye what I've neglected
Is this for better, is this for worse
You're all jammed up and the dam's about to burst

I hear the owl in the night
I realize that some things never are made right
By some will we string together here
Days to months and months to years
What if everything we have adds up to nothing

Come on home
The team you're hitched to has a mind of its own
It's just the forces of your past you've fought before
Come back here and shut the door
I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your trouble

  • Thank you to each member of the Martinez family for touching my heart with your many gifts. What an inspiration! Much love from Florida and always my best to each of you.

  • "A" is for amazing...I've admired him for years...

  • Marvelous A!!!

    What a family.

    Love,

    Jack Spaun

  • I'm a very big Fan from you A ! Great Video !! I miss to see you as Cruz in Santa Barbara !!!!

  • Congratulations Martinez family!Very emotional and sweet video! It brought tears in my eyes! A you should know that you have a very big fan in Greece! Thank you.Ilias Tsarouhas

  • may God bless the martinez family a million times more than He already has. how much joy you five bring to the world - i pray for you A, Leslie, Cody, Devon and Ren.

  • No doubt this is a very talented family, and one that seem to be a real - and loving - family. That's a rare commodity in the TV/movie actor circuit these days. A Martinez is a talented actor, and now we see that his wife, Leslie, is also very talented! I pray for God's best for the Martinez family.

  • As you can imagine, the Indigo Girls are much beloved by our family -- soul-deep songs by fine players who walk what they talk. Amys "Tether" lit us up back in the day. Our daughter Devons a cappella group, Something Extra, does a gorgeous version of Emilys great "Mystery, and "Come On Home" stopped us in our tracks.  The Girls YouTube channel offers much magic, as do their albums. If you havent been there yet... do go. Meanwhile, a shout out to everyone who's come to visit "Bucky."

  • there are some other very good perfs by the people in this movie if you go yo the "MORE BY LUCHANOCAMBIA' pull down to the right. Mostly live singing, and there's also a different"A.Martinez" video on youtube where he sings and plays guitar. Quality is not as good as this movie, but the kids are little, but all of them are there. Hope you do more. This is very cool.

  • thank you, on behalf of all your French fans. Your generosity touches us a lot. Your family is nice and it is unconvincing that your son resembles you! Your daughters are really nice also. This video is very original and the choice of music very succeeds. In very soon A. Don't forget that France love you forever.
