From the recording Dreamland
Lyrics
It’s the fourth of July, everybody’s waiting on dusk
With their eyes toward the sky, anticipating
Me, I look to the heavens, I am waiting for you
Won’t you come home?
Days drag by without any word
Coat’s all tattered, ripped and torn
I’m certain you’re hungry, hiding in plain view
Won’t you come home?
Posters are fading, can’t sleep without you near me
I wish I was dreaming, open my eyes to find you’re home
You’ve never gone, home sweet home
May angels guide you through the dark
Cold, black fear consumes this heart
I’d give you my lifetime for your safe return
Won’t you come home?
Posters are fading, can’t sleep without you near me
I wish I was dreaming, open my eyes to find you’re home
You’ve never gone, home sweet home
