lyrics

I've taken the long way around
through valleys deep and wide,
hoping to say that I've found
where my spirit lies.

I was hiding my heart.
I thought what I locked away
could never be broken again.
It broke anyway.

But I'm almost home.
In water so deep
it nearly took me to my grave,
but i found you in the wind
and I made the sail my friend
so you can blow...

Sometimes the path ain't straight.
I had a lot I was proving.
It's hard to navigate
when your star keeps moving.

I aim to disappoint, he says.
He points it out before they all see
and judge him for what he can't give.
He is just like me.

But I'm finally home,
a love that's so deep
it gave me hope of being saved.
You are the wind
and I'll make the sail my friend
and you can blow
me home.
