Gary Come Home Lyrics
Gary, don’t you see, I was wrong
I messed up, and now you’re gone
Gary, I’m sorry, I neglected you
Oh, I never expected you to run away and leave me feeling this empty
Your meow right now would sound like music to me
Please come home, ’cause I miss Gary
Gary Come Home
Gary Come Home
Gary, can’t you see, I was blind
I’ll do anything to change your mind
More than just a pet, you’re my best friend
Too cool to forget, come back, ’cause we are family
And forgive me for making you wanna roam
And now my heart is bеating like the saddest mеtronome
Somewhere I hope you’re reading my latest three-word poem
Gary come home
Stop
