away from home
I once did roam
but my heart did not journey with.
'stead it sang to me
over land and sea
from between the hands that took it
it sings: "return to me"
I walked alone
upon dirt and stone
wondering why my blood was not moving
and then I recalled
why my skin was cold:
hollow was my body
and wandering was my soul.
and it sang to me over land and sea:
"return to me"
away from home
I once did roam
but my heart did not journey with
so back home I'll flee
over land and sea
back to my heart and the hands that took it
oh, that beautiful grip that keeps my heart adrift
oh, that beautiful sound, tie me to the ship
oh, that beautiful grip that keeps my heart adrift
it sings: "return to me"
Ha-oly ma-joly, this album is a new favorite. Love the twists and turns of melody and lyrics everywhere. Rosie takes you on an adventure of the heart. remy owen
