Don't Let Me Come Home a Stranger

As I walked out one evening

To breathe the air and soothe my mind

I thought of friends and the home I had

And all those things I've left behindA silent star shone on me

My eyes saw a far horizon

As if to pierce this veil of time

And escape this earthly prisonWill there come a time when the memories fade

And pass on with the long, long years

When the ties no longer bind

Lord save me from this darkest fearDon't let me come home a stranger

I couldn't stand to be a stranger

Lord save me from this darkest fear

Don't let me come home a stranger

I couldn't stand to be a stranger
