Lyrics

I’ve been walking, over streams
Crossing over, from dream to dream
Stay on the path and go steady
No matter how far I do come, I cannot escape your loving eyes
Here the sound of the train roll by, taking you back to the past
I’ve been travelling a long way to get back to you
Stay true, my love, and go steady
Alright
I’m coming home but I can’t believe the time
I’m coming home and I can’t believe you’re mine
Here is my flesh, pierce it now
You stand alone against defence. Dig deeper in your trench
Raise your palms up into the sky
This world is yours to defy
Ill wilderness, unkempt
I’ll follow you by the moon
I cannot say that you’re a well read man
Certainly no scholar with an ivory wit
 
But I know something though, about you and how your garden grows
It’s so cold, so stark against the light, I’m watching you burn your crops to the ground
So, come on, come on, take my hand, I’ll help you understand
Come on come on, come on come on, come on come on
Please just stay for tomorrow day, just one more reprieve, reprise, just take my life and hold it tight
I could be your man
Baby now, please just take my hand
