Henry loves the ballpark |
| [00:12.34] |
But lately he ain't coming round |
| [00:16.59] |
Things have been so different |
| [00:20.53] |
Since his youngest boy left town |
| [00:25.59] |
|
| [00:31.97] |
Fighting seem so harmless |
| [00:34.22] |
Families sometimes disagree |
| [00:36.72] |
It's hard to know the reason |
| [00:43.62] |
Why he finally chose to leave |
| [00:48.31] |
But he's gone away |
| [00:53.12] |
And his father waits |
| [00:59.95] |
|
| [01:02.08] |
And he is watching and he is hoping |
| [01:09.82] |
Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open |
| [01:17.64] |
And his prayer, so softly spoken |
| [01:26.77] |
|
| [01:28.77] |
Please come home |
| [01:32.07] |
|
| [01:40.39] |
Now Henry sits and wonders |
| [01:44.69] |
In that front porch rocking chair |
| [01:48.63] |
Does his boy remember |
| [01:52.93] |
All the love the family shared |
| [01:57.56] |
And is he cold |
| [02:05.36] |
Out there alone |
| [02:10.80] |
And he is watching and he is hoping |
| [02:18.74] |
Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open |
| [02:26.61] |
And his prayer, so softly spoken |
| [02:37.55] |
Please come home |
| [02:44.12] |
To your seat at the table |
| [02:47.68] |
To your father who weeps |
| [02:51.41] |
Every night in sleepless dreams |
| [02:55.60] |
He longs to see |
| [02:59.48] |
His face in younger skin |
| [03:04.48] |
Running down the driveway again. |
