When are you coming home, my love? Well I've been alone far too long 'Cause this heavy heart, oh, how it's yearned 'Cause I've been alone far too long I miss you more than you could know I watch the grass on the back lawn grow And I will not allow winds

You could be doing anything you dream of If you believe in the things that make you strong Maybe, I know it's just maybe And we're only dreaming For how this will go, o-o-oh We could be doing anything that we love Just be carried by the way the wind

It's how we live How we live that defines us What we change And what we leave behind You know you can't You can't take it with you Your day will come It's just a matter of time What kind of man would I be

When he's face to face with that ole', kill or be killed We've got to learn to swallow our pride It's hard just to let things ride Maybe one day things will change As of right now, let me show you something You know a nigga, I be tryin' to chill But now

Everybody says "I love you" But not everybody lives "I love you" Without our past How will we know it's us? Love is not enought I could have hugged you more carefully And I suppose you could have been there for me But then again They say it's meant to be

No one wants to die alone They don't wanna miss the show It's funny, time missed us both We all got time when we will go (Don't) Seems to be over (Never) Seems to be over (Damn, yeah) Seems to be over Seems to be over Know I stay on alert

I need serenity And when will we learn to control Where do we go when we just don't know And how do we relight the flame when it's cold Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing In a place where I can hide Nothing changes, days go by As I sit here

'Cause I know he's here He's everywhere Take a look around oh and you will see That cross we bear It's in the air Lord we thank you for these gifted hands I remember the day that he came in I can't believe how long it's been Like a poet, he began to play
