about

Hey, it's Christopher Tom here, bringing you the brand new single "The Ballad of Joey Domino" which is also my first-ever collaboration! I teamed up with Mark E., a fellow singer-songwriter and musician, to make this song. He wrote the chorus and really made this song what it is, so you can support him by checking out his work here: marksilver.bandcamp.com

lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone
When I would let you go
It's like this every day
I wish I could take it all away

These evenings always come and go
Like feeling vertigo
It's alright, we're back home
It's alright 'cause we already know

In a perfect world, I wouldn't leave your side
But I've got things by which I must abide
So, just let me know that I'm on your mind
And I can sleep a little easier tonight
I can sleep a little easier tonight

I used to look at all the stars
Stoplights and passing cars
I used to just stand by
Now I don't dare look the other side

I met a shrink in my old town
He asked what's bringin' me down
I just said I don't know
It's alright 'cause he already knows

In a perfect world, I wouldn't leave your side
But I've got things by which I must abide
So, just let me know that I'm on your mind
And I can sleep a little easier tonight
I can sleep a little easier tonight

I'm coming home
Yeah
Yeah
I'm coming home
