Home To Stay

I know you're gone, I watched you leave

I always thought that it was me

You made it clear with that last kiss

You couldn't live a life with maybe's and what if's

When every boat has sailed away

And every path is marked and paved

When every road has had it's say

Then I'll be bringing you back home to stay

I have the cards you sent to me

You wrote of trains and Paris galleries

This spring you'll draw canals and frescoed walls

Look how far your dreaming's gone

When every town looks just the same

When every choice gets hard to make

When every map is put away

Then I'll be bringing you back home to stay

And now I know why you had to go alone

Isn't there a place between

When every boat has sailed away

And every path is marked and paved

When every road has had it's say

Then I'll be bringing you back home to stay

Reach out to me, call out my name

And I would bring you back again today
