	Song meaning as told by Jon: "It's about coming home after being away for a long time, and also about the times when we've got no money and we're lying in our bunks in a crazy, shitty room thinking, 'I'll be home again at some stage'. It's coming from my girlfriend's perspective in the way that I'm saying I can appreciate how fucked it is being away from me, and me being away from her. And I'm just saying, 'no matter how far away we are from each other, I still fucking love you, and I'll see you sooner or later'". Rip It Up, Oct. 1996		Song meaning as told by Jon: "It's about coming home after being away for a long time, and also about the times when we've got no money and we're lying in our bunks in a crazy, shitty room thinking, 'I'll be home again at some stage'. It's coming from my girlfriend's perspective in the way that I'm saying I can appreciate how fucked it is being away from me, and me being away from her. And I'm just saying, 'no matter how far away we are from each other, I still fucking love you, and I'll see you sooner or later'". Rip It Up, Oct. 1996

			Also: "Again, this was written in LA. Actually - that is a fucking lie. The music was written in LA. All those things I sing about, like being away from somebody, being on the same planet as somebody you love, but not being able to touch them or kiss them; it was about missing home, and also about home missing you. It was really, really simple, but I wrote the words once I was back in New Zealand. I had thoughts about what I wanted to sing about, but I didn't articulate them until I was forced to. We also knew that the music was special. I didn't want to fuck it up, so I left it until the last minute, which is what I do with every important moment in my life, I'm hopeless. That song just came really simply. I literally did it up stairs at York Street in 20 minutes. 20 minutes man. Bam, bam, bam." Rip It Up, Aug-Sep 2010.

Put your clock back for the winter
She asks when I'll be home again
If I could see those eyes
I know they'd cut me down a size
You're not here, when I need you

So sit and wait
And bend and break
You rise and fall
Just you that's all
I'm here, you're there
It don't mean I don't care
I'm so sorry I was miles away

It's been a day of tiny triumphs
It's been a week spent in dispair
You can't send it down a phone line
I do my best, but I'm not there

So sleep and wake
And dream up your fate
And rise and fall
Watch you grow tall
I'm here, you're there
But you should still know I love you
When I'm miles away

I'll be home again
I'll be home again
Coming home again
Coming home again
