Closer To Home |
| This is a lovely place that is hard to leave |
| And there is a loneliness that we will always grieve |
| So give what you can and only take what you need |
| And hope you heart will know what you eyes can’t see |
| When I was a child I still thought like a child |
| And I still feel like a child sometimes |
| But I’m learning the farthe3st I’ll travel each day |
| Is to the edge of my blindness, and then a little more ways |
| We will meet again I’m sure |
| Someday when our sorrow s are cured |
| And we’ll walk like friends, embrace again |
| Much closer to home we’ll be then |
| The world will build walls without any doors |
| And it is easy to forget what we are climbing them for |
| But I saw an angel with hope on it’s face saying |
| «There's good work to do, and there is no time to waste» |
| We are closer to home, we are closer to home |
| We are closer to home that we know |
| I felt your should in your fingertips |
| And I have held your hand and brushed them to my lips |
| And I saw the child that I birthed in my pain |
| And when she opened her eyes there were your eyes again |
