Lyrics
It's a hard way to come home
Returning home is difficult.
You've got me on my knees
Feeling emotionally vulnerable and pleading.
The walls are tumbling down
Things are collapsing or changing rapidly.
They're falling like the leaves
Changes are happening abundantly, akin to leaves falling.
The days turned into months and years
Time has passed, turning days into extended periods.
I can't forget that you were here
The memory of someone's presence lingers.
I feel your presence everywhere
Feeling someone's existence all around.
In the corner over there
A specific place or memory where their presence is felt.
Turn your eyes from me
Requesting someone to look away, signaling departure.
It's time for me to go
Indicating the need to leave.
Across the hills and over the sea
Expressing a desire to be elsewhere.
I want you more than you know
Expressing deep feelings for someone.
It's a wild world out there
Describing the world as unpredictable and harsh.
And nobody gives a damn
Emphasizing societal apathy and indifference.
In cold blood we don't care
Actions are taken without emotion or concern.
And we don't want to understand
Unwillingness to comprehend or empathize.
I'm sitting here alone at night
Being alone during the night.
My sleepless eyes are open wide
Unable to sleep, wide awake.
What do you want me to say
Questioning what to express or say.
What we had has gone away
Acknowledging the end of a past connection.
The sky is high the road is long
Describing the vastness of the sky and the journey ahead.
Show me what I should have done
Seeking guidance or understanding about past actions.
What do you want me to do
Asking for direction or guidance in the current situation.
Take it all away from you
Willingness to take away someone's burden or pain.
Turn your eyes from me
Repeating the request to look away as a departure nears.
It's time for me to go
Reiterating the need to leave.
Across the hills and over the sea
Expressing a desire to be far away.
I want you more than you know
Reiterating intense feelings for someone.
Turn your eyes from me
Repeating the request to turn away before departure.
It's time for me to go
Stating the need to depart once more.
Across the hills and over the sea
Reiterating the desire to be far away.
I want you more than you know
Emphasizing intense feelings not fully understood or expressed.
