Lyrics

Some are lucky ?cause they never left
Some found their way on their own
Some came and went before settling in
I took a long time coming home
I took a long time coming home
There was a tap on my shoulder
A voice in my ear
Calling me home to the truth
And as I grew a bit wiser and opened my heart
I found faith, I found hope, I found love

I was lost in a forest, caught in the dark
Kept moving in deeper, bent on making my mark
It was always the next thing, that would give me some peace
But that left my soul aching, redemption out of my reach

Some are lucky ?cause they never left
Some found their way on their own
Some came and went before settling in
I took a long time coming home
I took a long time coming home
There was a tap on my shoulder
A voice in my ear
Calling me home to the truth
And as I grew a bit wiser and opened my heart
I found faith, I found hope, I found love

You can be lost in a city, or get lost in your mind
If you live like a taker, faith may leave you behind
You can drink to find shelter, you can brag to get high
Turn your back on your brother; greed can be your main drive

Have you ever longed to be home?
Felt emptiness down to your bones
You don?t have to face the world on your own

Self reliance misleads you (It?s tempting to believe)
You can get caught in a fall (you can get by without your maker)
That leaves your heart wanting (Leaves you lonesome and afraid)
To make sense of it all (And you never find contentment)
Open up to the power (Don?t be the one deceived)
The almighty has shown (Reach out to your creator)
Your spirit can prosper (You can finally find some peace)
You?ll arrive at your home (The truest love you?ve ever known)

Some are lucky ?cause they never left
Some found their way on their own
Some came and went before settling in
I took a long time coming home
I took a long time coming home
There was a tap on my shoulder
A voice in my ear
Calling me home to the truth
And as I grew a bit wiser and opened my heart
I found faith, I found hope, I found love
