Cover art for Come on Home lyrics by Franz Ferdinand

This is a great song! It seems like such a fitting last song to an awesome CD. So whenever I hear this song I think of a guy and girl who were together at one point, but not anymore and now he thinks about her all the time. He likes being alone because he likes his heart to ache and he feels nervous whenever he sees her. Almost like he kinda likes the feeling of melancholy longing. Both people are in similar situations in life and both are ambitious people that get what they want. He talks about getting any girl he wants but he’s not really satisfied because no one can be “her". He knows they both want each other however neither can say it because both have willpower ie both are so strong. When he does see her he thinks she’s beautiful but the night ends and he always ends up thinking about her. In the last lines like he wants her to come home to him, but she must actually physically leave her house to come to him. Basically it sounds like both like each other but not so much as they like the head games or the “do they, don’t they?” kind of feeling. Ultimately he wants her to be the first to say how she feels.
