Come Take Me Home

He wakes up too early

And sits by the window

Because walking ain't that easy anymore

He thinks about her

And all the years that they shared. She's been gone a year to the day

Sometimes on the breeze

When the air is just right,

He can pretend that she's only outside, planting flowers in the yard

That will bloom in the spring

Like the beauty she gave to his life

Forever is a long time together,

But damn it went by so fast

I miss her so much as I wait here alone

For god to come take me home

At night when he lies down

To bed in their same room

After falling asleep in his chair

It never gets easy. It just turns into something that you do to just pass the time.

The kids are all grown with kids of their own

Maybe I'll call them tomorrow

And tell him I'm fine just passing the time writing songs on this guitar of mine

Forever is a long time together,

But damn it went by so fast

I miss her so much as I wait here alone

For god to come take me home

For God to come, take me home
