V6

[Intro – almost whispered, floating piano and distant cello] I have walked beneath the stars, with questions in my hands. [Lead Vocalist Ad-lib: (Mmmh...)] I have followed every road, I tried to understand. Somewhere beyond the silence, somewhere beyond the night... [Background Vocals: (Ooooh...)] [Verse 1 – warm, intimate] I've carried days that felt like years, and dreams I couldn't hold. I've watched the seasons come and go, I've wandered through the cold. But somewhere deep inside of me, a quiet voice still knows... [brief silence] there is a place my restless heart calls home. [Pre-Chorus – music slowly rises] And when the road grows quiet, when there's nowhere left to roam... [Cello rises softly] I close my eyes... and whisper... [Chorus – magical, spacious] LORD... [brief silence – deep resonant drum hit] let me go home... [Background Vocals: (Take me home... take me home...)] When every road has led me far away... when all my words have faded into silence... LORD... [brief silence] let me go home. [Background Vocals: (Home... home...)] Not to a house, not to a place... but where my soul knows Your name. [Lead Vocalist Ad-lib: (Mmmh... ohhh...)] LORD... [Two deep, soft drum hits] let me go home. [Verse 2 – intimate again] I've seen the morning find the dark, I've felt the rain become the sun. And every time I lost my way, something told me to carry on. [Background Vocals: (Carry on...)] Maybe home was never somewhere I could find along the road. Maybe home was always waiting deep within my soul. [Pre-Chorus – slightly bigger] And when the world falls silent, and the night surrounds me slow... I close my eyes... I breathe... and call... [Final Chorus – widest moment, warm not shouted] LORD... [brief silence] [Deep resonant drum hit] let me go home... [Background Vocals: (Take me home... take me home...)] Through every shadow, through every storm, through every night I've known... LORD... [Background Vocals: (Lord...)] let me go home. [Background Vocals: (Home... take me home...)] Not to a house, not to a place... but where my soul knows Your name. [Music drops almost completely] LORD... [long brief silence] let... me... go home. [Background Vocals: (Home... home...)] [Outro – whispered] I know... I'm not alone. [Lead Vocalist Ad-lib: (Mmmh...)]
