Intro: verse 1: There's a time in our lives To return, sacrifice Wild grass has grown high On the path between our lives There's a light in the trees It's closer now, I'm on my knees Oh Father, forgive me, please I came a long, long way back home To see you one more time 'Cause I came a long, long way back home To see you and say Goodbye Interlude: verse 2: Father's hands work the ground Turns the soil, lays it down Everything done and said Lives beyond the quick and the dead Heritage passed along To the sons like a blessed song So raise your voices on high tonight I came a long, long way back home To see you one more time 'Cause I came a long, long way back home To hold you and say Goodbye, Goodbye Outro:
