Laura Sandage: Listen

I'm Goin' Home

(Laura Sandage)
I'M GOIN' HOME
Laura Sandage 2004

Life is like a warm backseat
On a cold winter night
The road is dark and bumpy
But, oh, the starlight
If you trust the driver
Relax and settle in
Peaceful sleep will cradle you
'Till you're home again

(chorus)
I'm goin' home to my brother
Goin' home to my sister
Goin' home to my mother's
Holy light
I'm goin home to my children
Goin' home to my darlin'
I will be in my daddy's arms
Tonight

Wake up in the morning light
In your own cozy bed
Smell the coffee brewing
Warm breakfast bread
The house is full of family
Love overflows
Stepping into sheepskin slippers
Safe, warm toes

chorus

A place to watch the sunset
At the end of the day
Hear the sound of your own footsteps
On the driveway
Everyone you love
Is glad to see you there
Starlings coming home to roost
In the frosty air

chorus (2x)
