lyrics

I'll be home soon
And the winter days
The cold cold winds
Will fade away
I'll be home soon
And the distant longings
The tired hearts, the untouched hands
And you and I will heal again

I'll be home soon
The empty glamour
Of new found places
And endless skies
Will fade away
And times of absence
The wide wide oceans, the cloud high miles
And you and I will heal again

So don't walk heavy under the moon
What we have, my love, is still in bloom
Rest your eyes, cherish eternal dreams
The wide wide oceans, the cloud high miles
Will come together, I'll be home soon

I'll be home soon
And the winter days
The cold cold winds
Will fade away
I'll be home soon
And the distant longings
The tired hearts, the untouched hands
And you and I will heal again

So don't walk heavy under the moon
What we have, my love, is still in bloom
Rest your eyes, cherish eternal dreams
The wide wide oceans, the cloud high miles
Will come together, I'll be home soon
