I’ll wait for you old friend
It’s been so long again.
And as we travel on,
So, I’m told, it won’t be long.
But know this brother
Soon we’ll be back home.

I’ll carry you once more
As we roll along this dusty floor.
I’ll see you safely there,
For I know, your dreams are near.
But know this brother
Soon we’ll be back home.

As we see the shore
This year’s been hard, but there’ll be more.
I see the light of dawn
And as we march it matters not.
But know this brother
Soon we’ll be back home.

Wake up and see a brand-new day
And wave my old life away
The sun now shines where there was dark
I see new hope, a little spark.

Lo and behold, another year
This time I feel nothing to fear
I set my sights out from the shore.

It feels like starting over
I get a little bit closer
To another adventure
I feel a change in the weather.

Wake up and see a new blue sky
Brush off all fear and any lies
The grass now grows never like before.
