Description
As the old frozen stream begins to flow,
I look up towards the setting sun.
Whether it be the rain or wind or snow,
I know that you'll come back home.
When the moon's had its run of time borrowed,
And the sky turns a morning blue,
My eyes always find that old dirt road,
For I know that you'll come back home.
There are times when it's rough,
When I don't know what to do,
When I long for the days when you were here,
But it's still not enough,
I'll be waiting here for you,
As you're making your way over the hills and 'cross the rolling sea...
So the days turn to weeks, then into years,
And the sweet summer winds grow cold,
I will keep looking up, I will my dear
For I know that you'll come back home.
