Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hello my old friend of mine
Hope that you are doing fine
Heard that you were in that place
I see that look upon your face
Come home and return to us
Come home, let us fix you up again
[Verse 2]
I came across a man today
He stopped me in my tracks to say
Said that he'd been sent to us
To spread the word about The One
I looked at him, he at me
Could see the pain deep within
He just turned and walked away
And in a flash was gone
[Verse 3]
How far we've come
How far we'd go
[Verse 4]
Come, talk to me
Let's pretend it's make-believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over gold
[Verse 5]
They say a saint will have a past
A sinner, a future that will last
May you shine, forever glow
May you reap what you sow
The future is for those who believe
In the beauty of their dreams
My ancestors long and gone
But you can see them in my eyes
[Verse 6]
How low we go
To reach so high
[Verse 7]
Come, talk to me
Let's pretend its make-believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over gold
[Verse 8]
To reach so high
[Verse 9]
Come, talk to me
Let's pretend its make-believe
As I breathe in your soul
It's you and me over gold
[Verse 10]
There's life in your eyes
And your truth cuts through these lies
You show me the way
I choose life over gain
[Verse 11]
They say a saint will have a past
A sinner, a future that will last
May you shine, forever glow
May you reap what you sow
The future is for those who believe
In the beauty of their dreams
My ancestors long and gone
But you can see them in my eyes
