Come On Home Lyrics

Soon the sky will open up and disarm me

You will go just like you've gone before

One sad soldier off to war, enemies that only you can see.

Dishes stacked, the table cleared

It's always like the scene of the last supper here

You speak so cryptically that's not news to me

The flood is here it will carry you

And I've got work to do.

Come on home, the team you're hitched to has a mind of its own

But it's just the forces of your past you've fought before

Come back here and shut the door

I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your troubles.

There is fire there is lust

Some will trade it all for someone they could trust

There's a bag of silver for a box of nails

It's so simple the betrayal

Though it's known to change the world and what's to come.

Just come on home, the team you're hitched to has a mind of its ownIndigo Girls - Come On Home - http://motolyrics.com/indigo-girls/come-on-home-lyrics.html

But it's just the forces of your past you've fought before

Don't you recognize them anymore

I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your troubles.

There's the given and the expected

I count my blessings while I eye what I've neglected

Is this for better is this for worse

You're all jammed up and the dam's about to burst.

I hear the owl in the night

I realize that some things never are made right

By some will we string together here

Days to months and months to years

What if everything we have adds up to nothing.

Come on home, the team you're hitched to has a mind of its own

But it's just the forces of your past you've fought before

Come back here and shut the door

I'm stacking sandbags against the river of your troubles.
