The shadows stretch across this empty room
A thousand miles away from your perfume
I hold your picture in my trembling hands
And curse the foolish boy who couldn't understand
I swallowed all the words I should have said
Left you with the silence and the tears you shed
I built these walls of pride so incredibly high
Now I'm suffocating under this heavy sky
This space between us is an ocean of my making
I feel the very foundation of my soul is shaking
Every night I rewind to the moment that I walked away
If I could bleed to change the past I'd do it today
But I refuse to let our story end in dust
I will walk through the fire to rebuild your trust
I know the scars I left are deep and wide
But there's nowhere left for my heart to hide
I'm tearing down the pride I'm dropping the disguise!
I just want to see the forgiveness in your eyes!
I am coming home to be the man you deserve!
I will cross the broken glass I will find the nerve!
No distance is too far no storm can keep me away!
I’ll give you all my tomorrows for a second chance today!
I am coming home!
Just keep the porch light burning
I'm finally learning
I'm on my way to you
