Care of Cell 44 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Good morning to you, I hope you're feeling better, baby
Thinking of me while you are far away
Counting the days until they set you free again
Writing this letter, hoping you're okay
I saved you the room you used to stay in every Sunday
The one that is warmed by sunshine every day
And we'll get to know each other for a second time
And then you can tell me 'bout your prison stay

[Chorus]
Feels so good
You're coming home soon

[Verse 2]
It's gonna be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make up and it will be so nice

[Chorus]
Feels so good
You're coming home soon

[Bridge]
We'll walk in the way we used to walk
And it could be so nice
We'll talk in the way we used to talk
And it could be so nice
[Verse 3]
It's gonna be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, saved up for the train fare money
Kiss and make up and it will be so nice

[Chorus]
Feels so good
You're coming home soon
Feels so good
You're coming home soon

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Care of Cell 44 was a single off of the Zombie’s album, Odessey and Oracle. It is a letter written by someone to their partner in prison, who is going to be released soon.

It just appealed to me. That twist on a common scenario, I just can’t wait for you to come home to me again

-Rod Argent

Unfortunately, despite its modern appreciation, upon release the album was a commercial failure. Combined with other failures and weakening morale, the band split up soon after.
