I know you're gone, I watched you leave

I always thought that it was me

You made it clear--with that last kiss

that you couldn't lead a life with maybes and what if's

When every boat has sailed away and every path is marked and paved...

When every road has had it's say, then I'll be bringing you back home to stay.

I have the card you sent to me...

You wrote of trains and paris galleries...

This spring you'll draw canals and fresco walls...

Look how far your dreamings gone...

When every town looks just the same...

When every choice makes hard to make...

When every map is put away...

then I'll be bringing you back home to stay...

And now I know, why you had to go alone...

Isn't there a place between?

When every boat has sailed away...

And every path is marked and paved...

When every road has had it's say...

Then I'll be bringing you back home to stay...

Reach out to me...Call out my name...

And I would bring you back again today.
