Analysis of Please Come Home
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
I love you, I need you, I want you and more
I’ll show you all the wonders our God has in store
I do enjoy honey and sugar is sweet
But with love and goodwill they cannot compete
All I need is you and if you still need me
Then the door is wide open, cross over the sea
