Take my hand and lead me home I've been wandering far too long My love, my love is waiting there for me Free me from these chains I wear Tear these clothes and cut my hair I'm not, I'm not the one I used to be I never noticed there were shackles on my feet Not from my father but from all I've tried to be So young and loved and yet I cause my own defeat oh I'm going home Far from all I've ever known Out of luck and all alone This world, doesn't love us after all Time is high and weeds have grown Reaping these seeds I'm sown They stand, just to watch me fall I never noticed there were shackles on my feet Not from my father but from all I've tried to be So young and loved and yet I cause my own defeat, oh I'm going home Thoughts of home are full of fear Oh my child you're welcome here My arms, are open wide Did you not realize how much you mean to me No matter what you've done or who you've tried to be You are my child and you are loved beyond belief, oh Welcome home, oh Welcome home
