Crossing seas of sin’s desire
Fleeing faith & your Messiah
Fanning flames of worldly fire
Pretending it’s ok
Chasing things that lie behind you
Craving after lies that blind you
Hoping happiness will find you
My love for you won’t change
While waiting for that day
When the wind guides you home
Into each other’s arms if you just let your sails be
blown
But you’ve foolishly furled them
Because you’d rather row out alone
I’m still here looking out for you
More than a guardian angel
And when your search for love amongst waves of worldly
lusts is through
You’ll find you’ve always known
The only way is home
The only way is home
For all your incessant rowing
Steering driftwood, to and froing
Tides determine where you're going
A captain lost at sea
Siren calls allure and hound you
Sharks encircling surround you
Every second wave could drown you
Why won't you heed my plea
And sail on home to me
When the wind guides you home
Into each other’s arms if you just let your sails be
blown
But you’ve foolishly furled them
Because you’d rather row out alone
I’m still here looking out for you
More than a guardian angel
And when your search for love amongst waves of worldly
lusts is through
You’ll find you’ve always known
The only way is home
The only way is home
When you run
There’s nowhere, no destination
From my boundless love and my open arms
So I beg you to come
Although where you are
I’ve not been I died so that we needn’t be apart
You’re breaking my heart
It’s not just harmless fun running from me
When your world is shaking
And you feel like breaking
Soon about to be crushed by the waves of folly
Almost going under
Amid all the thunder
Can't you hear the wind calling you back home to me?
When your world is shaking
And you feel like breaking
Why keep wasting your life when I’ve got better plans
I can walk on water
Restore calm and order
So now swallow your pride and take me by the hand
When the wind guides you home
Into each other’s arms if you just let your sails be
blown
But you’ve foolishly furled them
Because you’d rather row out alone
I’m still here looking out for you
More than a guardian angel
And when your search for love amongst waves of worldly
lusts is through
You’ll find you’ve always known
The only way is home
The only way is home
You should know the lengths I go
To show and prove that I long for the best for
You should know the lengths I go
To show and prove that I long for the best for you
You should know
The only way is home, home
The only way is home
The only way is home, home
The only way is home
So don’t row out alone, alone
The only way is home
You’ll find you’ve always known, known
The only way is home
The only way is home
The only way is home |
