You'll Always Be Home - Jake Clark

There I was Ten years old Waitin' in my room for him To come home And I just knew He'd be so mad Though I begged my mother not to, she told my dad There was no denying I let him down But instead of being angry He put his arms around me and said... In the sunlight or the rain Brightest nights or darkest days I'll always feel the same way Whatever road you may be on Know you're never too far gone My love is there wherever you may be Just remember that you'll always be my baby There I was Twenty-one Oh, I was so ashamed Of what I'd done On a country road Parked one night Oh, it started out so innocent Crossed the line There was no denying I let God down But instead of being angry He let his love surround me and I heard... In the sunlight or the rain Brightest nights or darkest days I'll always feel the same way Whatever road you may be on Know you're never too far gone My love is there wherever you may be Just remember that you'll always be my baby There he is My little man I'm sure he'll get in trouble every now and then And I pray to God that when he does I'll be just as understanding as my father was 'Cause the last thing that I wanna do is let him down So instead of being angry, I'm gonna throw my arms around him And I'll say in the sunlight or the rain Brightest nights or darkest days I'll always feel the same way Whatever road you may be on Know you're never too far gone My love is there wherever you may be Just remember that you'll always be my baby Be my baby

(You'll aways be the one I love You'll always be the one I love) Every hour every day every year You'll always be the one I love Through each smile through each sigh through each tear My heart will feel the same old glow Even though the stars may fade from above Well I promise there will be no other arms for me You'll always be the one I love (You'll aways be the one I love You'll always be the one I love) My heart will feel the same old glow Even though the stars may fade from above I promise there will be no other arms for me You'll always be the one I love You'll always be the one I love

First steps, first words Seems like yesterday you were just a girl Skinned knees, climbing trees All those memories so close to me Now you're a woman on your own All in love and nearly gone But you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart 16, first car 21 and there's a broken heart High heels, strong will In my eyes I see a young child still But you're a woman on your own All in love and nearly gone But you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart So I say a prayer every day That God will guide you as you find your way You know that I'm near Anytime my love is always here 'Cause you'll always be my baby No matter where you are You'll always be my baby Forever in my heart Forever in my heart Forever in my heart

Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew Turn a colder shade of grey Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar words we used to share Seem so difficult to say And I am alone In a world of cold flesh Cold steel, cold stone I close up like a clam And shut the world out with the slam of the door To shut out all the fighting, all the hatred, all the war You just cannot stay calm When your soul screams less, but something always wants more What for? Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar blue eyes I once knew Turn a colder shade of grey Every day as heaven Moves further and further away Familiar words we used to share Seem impossible to say Every day Every day Heaven moves further and further away Everyday Everyday Heaven is moving further and further away Every day Every day

The wood burns warm The house is still The music soothes And soon I will Look for in another What I'd found in you What we had in each other But you couldn't live through Old love burns My body aches And I'm taking time For as long as it takes As the sunset fades And the moonlight breaks I'll try and put right All my mistakes A throwaway world A throwaway life I'm glad I'm by myself tonight When all passion's spent In the one you love When there's no guiding hands From a god above When all that's left Is never enough But there was a time That I can't find Filled with light From a love inside Filled with love It was a world so wide And we'd run from one To the other side Filled with laughter And a love so bright Now I wait for something By hushed firelight Something that would tell me Everything's all right A throwaway world A throwaway life I'm glad I'm here by myself tonight Where the wood's all warm And the fire burns bright And I tell myself everything will be all right As the sunset fades And the moonlight breaks The world is a small warm room tonight
