I've been gone awhile away from you

And I hope you overstand

That I've got to do what I must do

To be a better man

Cause if I was to just to act a fool

Do nothing with myself

Then all my blessings would be cursed

My world would crumble in

It's a joy when I sit down and

Think of the good times that we have

And what we do to make it through

When the good turns in to the bad

Well I hope you'll find it in your heart

And know these words are true

And please don't fuss

Because I must go do what I must do

(Chorus)

Hey baby don't you worry

Even though the road is rocky

I'll be coming home to you again

Cause if you thought that I was lost

I had to bare my cross

Now I'm free from all these Chains

A time, a space, a different place

How perfect we might be

I would be the wind that blows

You'd be that Willow tree

And I could never bare the thought of you not by my side

So I would be the warmth of day

You'd be the cool of night

And everyday I pray to Jah that one day you will see

And overstand the fact I must fulfill my destiny

I hope you'll find it in your heart and know these words are true

And please don't cry

Cause you know that I must do what I must do

(Chorus)

Hey baby don't you worry

Even though the road is rocky

I'll be coming home to you again

Cause if you thought that I was lost

I had to bare my cross

Now I'm free from all these Chains

Well and it's not easy

Jah knows how I try, I try

So don't you get irie

Jah knows how I try, I try
