Song Description
Josh is great at writing intruiging lyrics that aren't simple story-telling--the listener can find personal meanings to the lyrics. The haunting sound of the violin and pedal steel tracks really set a plaintive mood that draws the listener in.

Lyrics
COME BACK HOME
------------
All the way there
I've said the same old things
We are the loveliest pair
The dream that found its feet
Call me out
Your slack-eyed gaze
Will grow bright and starry
Any day
Come back home
We will hang our hats in the waiting warm
Ever there
Don't be so afraid
I've said it all before
I am radiant air
The one you've waited for
Overwhelmed
You walk and wail
In the windswept street
Where you began
Come back home
We will hang our hats in the waiting warm
Ever there
Even then
You saw the whole
The shame and blood together
Once again
I've said it all before
Come back home
We will hang our hats in the waiting warm
Ever there
Black and blue
We will leave our lives and this waiting room
Where we began
