Song Meaning of “Still Hoping You Might Come Back Home” by Parasites
This song is about the pain of missing someone you love who has left you. It speaks of the struggle of coping with the sadness and longing that comes when someone who you loved leaves you without warning. The chorus sums up the feeling of wanting the person back, regardless of the uncertainty of their return. The lyrics evoke a sense of helplessness and a wish for something to remain the same, even though it’s unlikely.
The lyrics describe the pain of losing someone, and looks back on past memories, wishing for one more chance to talk and reconcile. The singer feels powerless to stop the other person from leaving, but still holds onto hope that they will come back. Despite the hopelessness that comes with being left behind, they want to believe in the power of love and promise they are ‘still hoping you might come back home’.
