I recall A time when you and I would talk a little more To each other face to face, through love and war When I knew there'd always be an open door for me But I know, that home is just some place I always leave behind It's with me everywhere I go and I close my eyes And I know someday I'll catch you in the by and by, I know I know
Dear mother I know I have been away for far too long Dear mother Hope you'll understand it when you hear this song Cause you taught me how to be right in a world of wrong Gone wrong
But it ain't It ain't how long you live, it's how you live your life Burn bright until the grave don't shy away from the light Cause I won't waste my days I will use my time My time, my time
Dear father I know I have been away for far too long Dear father I know you'll understand it when you hear this song Cause you taught me how to be right in a world of wrong Gone wrong
I recall A time when you and I would talk a little more To each other face to face, through love and war Well I hope there will always be an open door for me
