Dallas Green wrote "Comin' Home" on his own, and under the City and Colour name it became the second single from his album Sometimes, released on Dine Alone and sent out as a single in 2006. Larry Thompson engineered and mixed it, and the song sits squarely in alt-country territory.

Chris Sargent directed the black-and-white video, which follows Green from room to room while a woman passes through some of the same spaces, never at the same moment he's there. The song turns up in another band's video, too: at the end of Cancer Bats' clip for "Pneumonia Hawk", the band, Alexisonfire singer George Pettit and producer Greg Below gather round to sing it.
