Longing For Home E

When I was young I was a dreamer
I thought this world was mine to own
And every day was adventure
All mine to claim I'd make a name that all would know

Then as I grew I longed for comfort
To taste the things this world affords
But at their best the scenes were fleeting
A gnawing grew inside I knew there must be more

And now I find myself here thinking
How sweet this life has been to hold
But through it all the pain and blessing
There's been a pull to leave this world for streets of gold

Now I'm longing for home
Yes I'm longing to be where I belong
I've loved the life I've lived but I know soon it will be gone
That's why I'm longing for home

Come home, Come home it's suppertime
That's why I'm longing for home. (2X)
