Coming Home

I’m coming home, so tired and sore  To see you smile and hope a lil’ more  Travelling on the sea gale strong In the tiniest whispers of a swallow’s song  To you my love, on a distant shore To see you bask in the sunshine, before  They tell you of the blood and gore  And taint our sweet love along  I’m coming home, a last encore  I don’t want eulogies, praises and lore  Twenty one guns and respects galore  Only wish to hold you, for a moment long  In your sweet embrace, I’ll always belong In memories I’ll reside, forevermore  I’m coming home, through heaven’s door.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
