Almost Home - Shawn James

It’s been way too long

Since I held you, darling, in my arms

A thousand more miles and I’ll be by your side

I ache for you every night

It feels so wrong

To leave you all alone

I’ll settle down someday, for now, I’ve got to stray

I’m still yours even when I’m not home

Tired, dirty and bruised, but I won’t sway

Only time and distance stand in my way

I’d drive all through the night, just to see your jade eyes shimmer in the

morning light

I love you, darling, I’m almost home
