Of songs  it seems
And with God I have made peace
When you're old and grey
Will you think of me
With a smile upon your face
Well  the door is almost closed
And we're staring through the darkness
Well  the war is almost won
Can you hear the kingdom come
As the day begins to fade
And we turn the final page
I am on my way back home
Strange how something
So sweet can become a lie
I never had the chance to say good night
Well  the door is almost closed
And we're staring through the darkness
Well  the war is almost won
Can you hear the kingdom come
As the day begins to fade
And we turn the final page
I am on my way back home
Yes  I'm on my way back home
