A Long Walk Home
As stranger to all he was known
A man with a hidden past
A long walk home
He traveled many a mile
A rugged man he became
Across the land he wondered
Searching for his soul to find
Forgetting his very own name
Only companion his thoughts
Witness to a tender sight
a Father and son Moment
Taking his heart back
to where he belongs
Without his old troubles
It's time for him to go home
Follow the train tracks
into the glowing light
With awareness he conceives
The roads that he traveled
Was nothing more
Then a long walk home
