Home Lyrics - Solace - Sarah Mclachlan

Child walks down to the river's edge 

And looks out as far as she can see 

And draws each breath as if it were the last 

And wipes away the tears across her sleeve 

She can see where the river crawls to the sea 

Like a baby into mothers care 

Somehow the longing is so far away 

The innocence so wasted and aware 

And look at the child with the dream in her eyes 

Holding it deep inside her 

Thinking about home, home 

So much anger so deeply engrained 

Seemed a burden that was hers alone 

She didn't thing that there was anything wrong 

With wanting a life that she could call her own 

How could I explain? You would not want to hear 

You wouldn't listen if I talked anyway 

For you were too weighed down by your own fears 

Look at the child with the dream in her eyes 

Holding it deep inside her 

Home, home, home, home
