| [00:06.8][00:04.7] | homecoming |
| [00:15.5] | it's desert ice outside but this diner has thawed my ears |
| [00:22.7] | hot coffee in a clean white mug and a smile when the waitress hears |
| [00:28.8] | that I was born in North Carolina |
| [00:33.9] | not an hour from her home town |
| [00:37.8] | and we used to play the same pizza parlor pinball |
| [00:45.7] | and there's a glance in time suspended as I wonder how it is |
| [00:51.4] | we've been swept up just by circumstance to where the coyote lives |
| [00:58.6] | where my days are strips of highway |
| [01:04.8] | and she's wiping tables down |
| [01:08.5] | holding on and still waiting for that windfall |
| [01:16.8] | but I've come home |
| [01:23.9] | even though I've never had so far to go |
| [01:31.7] | I've come home |
| [01:47.8] | I pay the check and leave the change from a crumpled ten-dollar bill |
| [01:54.7] | head across the street where VACANCY is burning in neon still |
| [02:02.6] | well the night eats up my body heat |
| [02:06.3] | and there's no sign of another |
| [02:09.8] | and I find myself slipping down into that black |
| [02:18.1] | but things are good I've got a lot of followers of my faith |
| [02:25.0] | I've got a whole congregation living in my head these days |
| [02:32.8] | and I'm preaching from the pulpit |
| [02:37.4] | to cries of a€?Amen brothera€? |
| [02:41.5] | closing my eyes to feel the warmth come back |
| [02:48.7] | and I've come home |
| [02:56.0] | even though I swear I've never been so alone |
| [03:03.8] | I've come home |
| [03:18.9] | I just want to be living as I'm dying |
| [03:23.2] | just like everybody here |
| [03:26.4] | just want to know my little flicker of time is worthwhile |
| [03:34.1] | and I don't know where I'm driving to |
| [03:38.5] | but I know I'm getting old |
| [03:42.0] | and there's a blessing in every moment every mile |
| [04:06.1] | thin white terry bars of soap and a couple little plastic cups |
| [04:12.8] | old Gideons Bible in the nightstand drawer saying a€?Go on open upa€? |
| [04:20.2] | well I'll kneel down on the carpet here |
| [04:24.8] | though I never was sure of God |
| [04:28.5] | think tonight I'll give Him the benefit of the doubt |
| [04:36.6] | I switch off the lights and imagine that waitress outlined in the bed |
| [04:43.6] | her hair falling all around me |
| [04:47.5] | I smile and shake my head |
| [04:51.3] | well we all write our own endings |
| [04:55.0] | and we all have our own scars |
| [04:59.4] | but tonight I think I see what it's all about |
| [05:10.0] | because I've come home |
| [05:22.7] | I've come home |
| [00:00.009] | |
