I walked here alone
Found my own way
Carried my burden through the crooked and straightI have come to the garden
And stepped through the stream
That no one can cross o'er but meDon't make me wait to go to my father's house
There's a light on the porch and it's cold out
If I wait to go to my father's house
I don't know if I'll make it home
I have counted my battles
To measure my war
Dreaming of a mansion with fireproof floorsI have come to the river
To dip my head and shiver
And knelt at the end of the dayDon't make me wait to go to my father's house
There's a light on the porch and it's cold out
If I wait to go to my father's house
I don't know if I'll make it homeIn the end I'll look back on the days
I was traveling alone
Traveling alone
Don't make me wait to go to my father's house
There's a light on the porch and it's cold out
If I wait to go to my father's house
I don't know if I'll make it home
