God, I can still feel you like it was yesterday
But I'm afraid that if I turned around
I'd be staring into the face of emptiness
And I'd be as lost as the light is from the darkness
And the sight it has never found
And what that means is that I've got to keep my eyes open
And keep the faith that keeps me hoping that someday you'll come home
And though I awaken every morning as I have before
Every morning the sun shines a little less
Telling me that the time is coming fast
And that though I always pray for a more
Time will always take away what is yours
And what that means is that I've got to keep my eyes open
And keep the faith that keeps me hoping that someday you'll come home
And keep the faith that keeps me hoping that someday you'll come home
And, maybe someday you'll come home
