To Find a Place to Call Home Again

Maybe there is a home for me

a place where I belong

And maybe I, maybe I will go there someday

just to feel the weight of it all

 

Through my fingers and in my blood

On my shoulders and through my lungs

And I will sit on the chair that waits for me, so patiently

just wondering what took so long

 

Once upon a ticking clock

with minutes old and seconds lost

a rhythm born that was forgot

but home is where the heart is docked

 

So time, so time may come

Oh and time may go on and on and on and on and on

But I am, but I am forever

just a piece of dusk till dawn

 

Once upon a ticking clock,

with minutes old and seconds lost,

a rhythm born that was forgot,

but home is where the heart is docked.

 

Mapmaker, oh mapmaker

sitting there with your pen and paper

what would you say, what would you say

to the girl who has lost her way?

 

When all the roads are caught up in a tangle

and the compass points north but I'm unable

to see, to feel, to find a place to call home again

 

And the clocks hands - they are taking their time

to show which way the wind is making the sail

pull the heart strings, feather wings.

 

They unfold with the hope that tomorrow

the sun will burn hotter than the sorrow

and, anything and everything is clear.

It's crystal clear.
