Homeward Bound

HOMEWARD BOUND
Do you hear me, my beloved?
Can you hear me, one true love?
Do you hear me? Say you hear me.
I am calling out to you.

I am whispering ‘tween the raindrops
 lost in gentle fall of the  leaves,
 crying tears of missing you, love
 longing, waiting in the dark.
 
Will you answer, call me home now
 to your heart and open arms 
 to be homeward, bound safe forever
 never again. to leave your door.

I can hear you,  hear your  voice love
 wrap my arms full all around you 
 hold you close love, one more midnight
 ne’er again  be apart from you.

Do you feel it, sense my soul, love
coming home and standing there,
standing there with open arms love
and love unmatched e’er before.

See your face, love, that wide eyed smile
I am coming, coming home 
I’m coming home to you tomorrow
I’m on my way, I’m Homeward bound.

Here I am  my beloved
Can you feel me, my true love?
Do you feel me? Say you feel me.
I am calling out your name

Whispering ‘tween the teardrops
 lost in gentle fall of  leaves,
 crying tears embracing you, love
 no longer, waiting in the dark.
 no longer, homeward bound.
