I know you're gone
I watched you leave
I always thought
That it was me
You made it clear
With that last kiss
You couldn't live a life
With maybe's and what-if'sWhen every boat
Has sailed away
And every path
Is marked and paved
When every road
Has had its say
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stayI have the cards you sent to me
You wrote of trains and Paris galleries
This spring you'll draw
Canals, and frescoed walls
Look how far your dreaming's goneWhen every town looks just the same
When every choice gets hard to make
When every map is put away
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stayAnd now I know why you had to go alone
Isn't there a place betweenWhen every boat
Has sailed away
And every path
Is marked and pavedWhen every road
Has had its say
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stayReach out to me
Call out my name
And I would bring you back again
Today
