|
Standing at your door |
|
Like so many times before |
|
Here I'm again |
|
Returning to a friend |
|
You kiss my weary feet |
|
And take me to your room |
|
I lay my coat away |
|
You wash my face and say: |
|
Welcome home |
|
It has been a while |
|
You've walked a thousand miles, back home |
|
Now leave your worries behind |
|
And rest your mind... |
|
This time I'm back for real |
|
This time I will heal |
|
Never will I |
|
Hold that coat again |
|
I'm at home again, it has been |
|
A while |
|
I've walked a thousand miles back home |
|
I leave my worries behind |
|
And rest my mind |
|
The truth behind my words |
|
Is only known to you |
|
You know I won't |
|
Stay the summer through |
|
Still you say: |
|
Welcome home, |
|
It has been a while |
|
You've walked a thousand miles, back |
|
Home , now leave your worries behind |
|
And rest your mind... |
