The voices die in the distance   The crying is faint   The same fate overtakes them   The sound rings in the midst      Better days will lie in wait   So I'll endure this till you take me away   Holding close to your hands   Never slipping through your grip      The road is getting longer   And I don't know if I can make it   But I'll hold hoping   To get stronger all the while      Calling out, let it pass   Let it drown with the water   Freedom from this place   Is found in you, it's found in you      I'll be home soon   With the letter in my left hand   I'll be home soon   'Cause I'm coming home to you      Chasing the wind   The light that you lead is only a shadow now   But it's bright enough for me to lead you out   So I'll take this until it fades      Until it falls, until it breaks   And I'll kiss it goodbye   I'll kiss life goodbye, this world goodbye   I'll be home soon, I will be home soon
