Somewhere in the distant past
I saw a latch
And in your soul
It flickered on
And now it's off again

I've memorized the day
When you were
Skipping stones across the sea
And you carried me back home again

(Oh, it's a lonely road
Won't you stay
Won't you stay
Won't you stay) x2

We can do this any other way...

Tell me what you dream about
When no one is there to catch you smile
Is it something warm...
Something delicate

Your working hands feel quite like stone
But they still seem soft and sensitive
When compared to your heart

(Oh, it's a lonely road
Won't you stay
Won't you stay
Won't you stay) x2

We can do this any other way...Oh, oh
There is no where left to run away...Oh, oh

Father, there is no one left
On this earth to impress
So please come home
Come back home

Twenty years have passed since
I have heard you say that life is good
But I'm losing hope
So come back home

(Oh, it's a lonely road
Won't you stay
Won't you stay
Won't you stay) x2

We can do this any other way...x2
There is no where left to run away...
