Homecoming / The Rocking Chair

She remembers the day
It was a cold Tuesday morning
When, when you ran away
So sudden without a warning
And she, she sits so numb
On her old rocking chair
Your mother how she wishes
That you were there
I remember you as a little child
But you’ve gone so far, and it’s been a while
You went so far away
She thought her love could heal you
And though, though you’re not here
Every moment she could feel you
Her house is empty
But her lonely heart is full of care
Your mother how she wishes
For you to be here
I remember you as a little child
But you’ve gone so far, it’s been a while
I tried running, I tried fighting
Mama I’m so lost
I feel the tide turning my way
My tired feet tell me
All I need is some loving
Maybe all I need is homecoming
I remember you as a little child
I remember you as a little child
I remember you
She remembers the day
It was a cold Tuesday morning
Ma, Ma we won’t be alone
Cause I’m coming home
