Lyrics
Wherever I go make sure you know
It's a roundtrip journey you'll see
I've been there before and once again it feels like
I'm on the path home
Like a light, like a road, like a hand,
Like a fire, like a river, flowing home
Like a kiss, like a touch
Like a smile I miss so much
Like a stone in my pocket
Reminds me, reminds me of Home
What twist of fate brought us to this place
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
The road needs to go on a detour through your heart
Cause it feels like the path that leads me home
CHORUS
Bridge: You and I share this lonely space
I'll comfort as we pass through
Let's just follow the footsteps in the sand
That will take us all the way back Home
CHORUS
