Sweet Adonis Lyrics - Carole King

Waiting on tables while waiting on fame 

In a city filled with numbers, they've forgotten their names 

Like a lonely broken people without title, without claim 

When every day's survival is one more night of shame, night of shame 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis 

Welcome home, my old friend 

I'm glad to see you made it through your contests once again 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis 

You heart needs time to mend 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis, my old friend

Hoping for the promise, staying for the show 

In a world of brief advantage, the victims come and go 

Their faces seem so honest, their manners have such style 

Oh, but when hunger means existence 

There's a feast in every smile, in every smile 

So welcome home, sweet Adonis 

Welcome back, my old friend 

I'm glad to see you made it up 

That hard road once again 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis 

Your highway's found an end 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis, welcome home 

Sweet Adonis 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis 

Welcome home, sweet Adonis
