Find Your Way Back To Me

I'm having a very hard time without you
Please come home and sing to me
It's your voice that tends to soothe
Not your fading memory

I've put away my childish things
And righted every wrong
Carved your name into my brow
Then wove you into song

Come put your arms around me
I'm chilled like a coverless child
Hanging on the brink of doom
Stirred up like a river wild

So won't you darken my doorway
And eat here from my plate
Clothe yourself in my embrace
No longer make me wait
