Welcome Home
Good bye for now
I’m sorry you can’t stay
I know that it is hard here
So you had to go away
Even though you may get lost
I’m confident you’ll find
You’ll want to turn around
Because you left me behind
You can give up or give in
Surrendering your soul
Feeling like you should rebel
To prove you’re in control
If you’ve gone so far
You think I’ll disappear
Remember who you are
And know that I am near
I hope next time I see you
You stay longer than the last
But I will never judge you
For learning from your past
So get found as you wander
Lose me if you need to
Doubt everything about me
To learn I’ll never leave you
When we are apart
You are not alone
I am the real you
And you’re always welcome home
