[00:08.14][01:42.67][03:59.77][05:39.26]	史逸欣-Homecoming(Walter's Song)
[00:12.14][03:53.74][05:42.02]
[00:16.10]	It's desert ice outside
[00:17.86]	but this diner has thawed my ears
[00:22.26]	Hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile
[00:26.74]	when the waitress hears
[00:29.50]	That I was born in north carolina
[00:33.95]	Not an hour from her home town
[00:37.66]	And we used to play the same pizza parlor pinball
[00:45.07]	And there's a glance in time
[00:47.32]	suspended as I wonder how it is
[00:52.72]	We've been swept up just by circumstance
[00:57.92]	to where the coyote lives
[01:01.56]	Where my days are strips of highway
[01:05.46]	And she's wiping tables down
[01:09.14]	Holding on and still waiting for that windfall
[01:15.79]	But I've come home
[01:22.98]	Even though I've never had so far to go
[01:30.86][03:04.01][05:22.80]	I've come home
[01:47.23]	I pay the check and leave the change
[01:51.68]	from a crumpled ten-dollar bill
[01:55.47]	Head across the street
[01:57.48]	where vacancy is burning in neon still
[02:03.73]	Well the night eats up my body heat
[02:07.53]	And there's no sign of another
[02:10.85]	And I find myself slipping down into that black
[02:19.31]	But things are good I've got
[02:21.26]	a lot of followers of my faith
[02:25.06]	I've got a whole congregation
[02:28.92]	living in my head these days
[02:33.02]	And I'm preaching from the pulpit
[02:37.63]	To cries of“Amen brother”
[02:41.70]	Closing my eyes to feel the warmth come back
[02:49.16]	And I've come home
[02:56.10]	Even though I swear I've never been so alone
[03:19.41]	I just want to be living as I'm dying
[03:23.83]	Just like everybody here
[03:27.32]	Just want to know my little
[03:29.86]	flicker of time is worthwhile
[03:35.59]	And I don't know where I'm driving to
[03:39.82]	But I know I'm getting old
[03:43.49]	And there's a blessing in every moment every mile
[04:05.82]	Thin white terry bars of soap
[04:09.92]	and a couple little plastic cups
[04:13.57]	Old gideons bible in the nightstand
[04:16.98]	drawer saying“Go on open up”
[04:21.36]	Well I'll kneel down on the carpet here
[04:25.33]	Though I never was sure of god
[04:28.97]	Think tonight I'll give him the benefit of the doubt
[04:36.96]	I switch off the lights and imagine
[04:40.02]	that waitress outlined in the bed
[04:44.18]	Her hair falling all around me
[04:48.51]	I smile and shake my head
[04:51.87]	Well we all write our own endings
[04:55.86]	And we all have our own scars
[04:59.11]	But tonight I think I see what it's all about
[05:06.98]	Because I've come home
