See Me Home - Chely Wright

I don’t need a moon that’s full

To feel its curse, its weight, its pull

And I don’t need the riverbed

To push my dreams above my head

And I don’t need the falling day

To find me on the floor this way

Where reason turns its face away

But I might need you soon

To see me home

I don’t know how the rising tide

Has crawled my knees and found my side

I don’t know how it knows my name

Or the reaching shadow of my frame

I don’t know why it’s come to call

And steals the color from the wall

Then sweeps us both out in the hall

But I know I’ll need you soon

To see me home

Take my hand

Walk me through the valley

I’ll fear not, with the sun to warm my face

There we’ll stand

In the light of all that shall be

Knowing home has never been a place

Something has come over me

Rolled a stone away and free

Scratched a word into the sand

With something still here in my hand

It’s something neither you nor I

While dark has slipped beneath the skies

It’s lit a lamp behind our eyes

And I know I’ll need you soon

To see me home

Oh I know I’ll need you soon

To see me home
