Through the wind and the rain I hear my mother's cry |
|
She says, "I know my baby's out there |
|
Just couldn't bear to ask her why |
|
From my womb into the world |
|
Lord, I wish the child would call |
|
You know, I'm needing some company |
|
She makes my life so full" |
|
Take my advice, go ahead and live your own life |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home |
|
Like the fire waits for the sand |
|
This world is burning with the tension of human hands |
|
Waiting to be cleansed, waiting for their ace of spades |
|
They say, "I sure hope he's coming |
|
'Cause I feel like I've just been saved" |
|
Take my advice, go ahead and live while you're alive |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home |
|
Come to me and cleanse my soul |
|
(I'm free, I'm free) |
|
Only with you am I whole |
|
(Can't you see that I am me?) |
|
I'll be waiting by the window |
|
(I'll be heading for the door) |
|
I was driving down highway 85, yeah |
|
Had to pull off the road just to hear my radio coming in clearer |
|
Lord, this life's so full, I said, "Why do we ask for more?" |
|
While we're waiting for the man to come |
|
We forgot what he's coming for |
|
Won't you take my advice, go ahead and live while you're alive |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home |
|
(I'll be waiting by the window) |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home |
|
(I'll be waiting by the window) |
|
Everybody's waiting for someone to come home |
|
Come home |
