Coming home

Soon all of town will be gone
The lights are switched off one by one
I stand in the comfort of the night and realize
there are no more hills to climb
I sing to myself forgotten songs from yesterday
and as the rain starts to fall I start to walk...
...through empty streets back home

Roads we know cuz we walked them a thousand times before
All alone through the nights in search of something new

The wind is blowing softer tonight
It helps the tension to subside
What little is left of my doubts run down the
drain along with all the rain
I'm anxious to see what tomorrow holds for me
And if I ever should doubt where I belong
I won't look too far cuz here...

...lies the youth I once possessed
Here's the love when I need it
Here's the pride I learned to hold
It's all within what I call home

I'll soon close my eyes to sleep safe here one more night
A few steps from home I'm slowing down
I breathe in the air and think of all the times we shared
I'm with no one else yet everyone

Here's the youth I once possessed
Here's the love when I need it
Here's the pride I learned to hold
It's all within what I call home
