Would You Come Home (from "Roswell, New Mexico" soundtrack)

My father taught me home is where the hurt is
So I built a fortress, where I lived alone
He said ships were never meant to have a harbor
So I've worn this armor, I've fought and flown

I was raised a soldier
Put my weapons down to hold you
Is a kiss an act of war
I just tried to keep you warm
Even though I couldn't stay
No you never looked away
Now I can't look away

Would you meet me in the middle
Could we both stop keeping score
There's a battle I must fight alone
It's you I'm fighting for
If I call off the battalion
Break my walls down stone by stone
Tear down my defenses
I can build your heart a home
And if I did
Would you come home

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Together we could quiet all the noises
Drown out the voices, play our own song
Boys becoming men under the desert sky
But something dark inside said it was wrong

I was raised a soldier
Put my weapons down to hold you
Is a kiss an act of war
I just tried to keep you warm
Even though I couldn't stay
No you never looked away
Now I won't look away

Would you meet me in the middle
Could we both stop keeping score
There's a battle I must fight alone
It's you I'm fighting for
If I call off the battalion
Break my walls down stone by stone
Tear down my defenses
I can build your heart a home
And if I did
Would you come home

I still find my fathers shrapnel
Buried beneath my skin
But I've begun to heal in all the places your hands have been

Would you meet me in the middle
Could we both stop keeping score
There's a battle I must fight alone
It's you I'm fighting for
If I call off the battalion
Break my walls down stone by stone
Tear down my defenses
I can build your heart a home
And if I did
Would you come home

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Wish I found the words when we were seventeen
You were the best of me
You are the best of me
