Before I took in, I tried to think of something I could say
I watched the shadows in the hall
Had to dance with the light and the white on the wall

Your face in these pictures looks like a poem
Your eyes lit up like a river storm
Your body so much like a blanket thrown on a warm bed at night,

Like a house in the storm
Then you walked right through the doorway
You tell me you're here to stay

The worst is gone and back I'd holler,
Had you been here this way
I surprise myself sometimes

The way the days unfold and this road unwinds
You tell me you see it too
And the miles feel like inches when I think of you

It's been 25 days that I've been gone
And 25 weeks since I've seen my home
I spend 25 months chasing this song

All of this time I've been alone
You walked right through the doorway
You tell me you're here to stay

And The worst is gone and back I'd holler,
Had you been here this way
And you knew it all along

I wasn't haṗpy all along
And nobody at home had wanted me to just come home
Then you walked right through the doorway

You tell me you're here to stay
The worst is gone and back I'd holler,
Had you been here this way

And I won't just run, I'll stand like a man
I got 25 years of running instead
How could I see that I never ?

That you came to me and I was caught in the storm
That I wasn't alone
