Standing at your door

Like so many times before

Here I ´ m again

Returning to a friend

You kiss my weary feet

And take me to your room

I lay my coat away

You wash my face and say:

Welcome home

It has been a while

You ´ ve walked a thousand miles back home

Now leave your worries behind

And rest your mind

This time I ´ m back for real

This time I will heal

Never will I

Hold that coat again

I ´ m at home again it has been a while

I ´ ve walked a thousand miles back home

I leave my worries behind

And rest my mind

The truth behind my words

Is only known to you

You know I won ´ t

Stay the summer through

Still you say:

Welcome home

It has been a while

You ´ ve walked a thousand miles back

Home now leave your worries behind

And rest your mind

Welcome home

It has been a while

You ´ ve walked a thousand miles

Now leave your worries behind

And rest your mind
