When you’ve been travelling for centuries,
And you know that you’re a million miles from home.
You sense that you have lost your way,
And there’s an aching in your heart,
For if truth be told you wish that you had stayed.
You hardly dare admit, what’s happening in your head,
For how could you remain upon this empty path you tread.
Yet every day is a good day to begin.
Every day is the right one to take the first step,
On this twisting turning, aching yearning, journey to your home.
There’s no need to be frightened by the distance.
The second step will follow on the first.
And if you can lose yourself in the journey,
You will sometimes forget your thirst.
When you’ve been travelling forever,
And you sometimes doubt you really have a home.
You’re certain that you’ve lost your way,
And there’s a screaming in your heart,
For if truth be told, you wish that you had stayed.
Do you think you can continue, forever playing this game?
So turn to face the one who loves you, and stand in deepest shame.
Yes every day is a good day to begin.
Every day is the right one to take the first step,
On this twisting turning, aching yearning, journey to your home.
