|
Little boy, six years old |
|
A little too used to being alone |
|
Another new mom and dad |
|
Another school, another house that will never be home |
|
When people ask him how he likes this place |
|
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face |
|
This is my temporary home, it's not where I belong |
|
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through |
|
This is just a stop on the way to where I'm going |
|
I'm not afraid because I know |
|
This is my temporary home |
|
Young mom, on her own |
|
She needs a little help, got nowhere to go |
|
She's looking for a job, looking for a way out |
|
'Cause a halfway house will never be a home |
|
At night she whispers to her baby girl |
|
"Someday we'll find our place here in this world" |
|
This is our temporary home, it's not where we belong |
|
Windows and rooms that we're passing through |
|
This is just a stop on the way to where we're going |
|
I'm not afraid because I know |
|
This is our temporary home |
|
Old man, hospital bed |
|
The room is filled with people he loves |
|
And he whispers |
|
"Don't cry for me, I'll see you all someday" |
|
He looks up and says |
|
"I can see God's face" |
|
This is my temporary home, it's not where I belong |
|
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through |
|
This was just a stop on the way to where I'm going |
|
I'm not afraid because I know |
|
This was my temporary home |
|
This is our temporary home |
