Early morning. The idea just hit me – almost twenty years and now we’re alone. Step outside, I’ve got to take a breather. Leave the door unlocked because I’ll be back home. My head feels like my heart has stopped racing, I guess now is good enough to go back in. Feet stumble and my world seems to be spinning, but I always knew that these times must end…
But I’ll keep moving! Everything will keep moving, and I’ll be ready when you come back home. I’ll learn my lesson while you’re teaching your lessons. I’ll reach the point where I will finally know. It’s an uphill battle and I’m now at the bottom of the steepest climb on our highest hill. I’m in the deep-end, lost without a paddle, and this world we know does just what it will.
But it’s alright, we’ll make it Home. And it’s so wonderful when we know where to go. It’s alright, we can make it Home. It’s so wonderful when we know where to go.
I’m now dreaming that I never gave up hoping, and now I’m sleeping (at least for a while). But I’m still wanting…we both are still wanting a reason to hold on for at least one more mile. It’s fast approaching and the heat is now rising but my fire inside has all but grown cold. We’ll give our speeches, good-byes, and in-between them I’ll realize just how much we have grown.
But I’ll keep moving! Everything will keep moving, and I’ll be ready when you come back home. I’ll learn my lesson while you’re teaching your lessons. I’ll reach the point where I will finally know. It’s an uphill battle and I’m now at the bottom of the steepest climb on our highest hill. I’m in the deep-end, lost without a paddle, and this world we know does just what it will.
But it’s alright, we’ll make it Home. And it’s so wonderful when we know where to go. It’s alright, we can make it Home. It’s so wonderful when we know where to go.
And it’s so beautiful when you know you’re not alone.
