lyrics

Home
by Brenda Carsey

I was born in the winter
But where I’m from
That means the sun was shining
And my mom was wed to a drinker
She struggled hard as he kept on fighting
Then she went out on her own
And together we crossed the county line
Her head held high with me in her arms
Set out to find ourselves a new life

Oh, you’ll never know
Which way the winds will blow
Can’t guess how the currents
Will bring you home
But they’ll bring you home

Then she met another man
And this man sure did treat her right
Stood tall, yah he stood strong
And held us both as his shining lights
Treated me just like a father should
Played with me and taught me about life
Firm as a rock, soft as a feather
A humble man to act as my guide

Oh, you’ll never know
Which way the winds will blow
Can’t guess how the currents
Will bring you home
But they’ll bring you home

I was born in the city
Where all the lights shine oh so bright
Everyday is such a journey
Flowing through with just a bit of fight
Give me a wall in a maze
And I’ll climb it and find my own way
Give me some truth and I’ll preach it
Cause I always got something to say
And right now I’m saying

Oh, you’ll never know
Which way the winds will blow
Can’t guess how the currents
Will bring you home
Oh but they will bring you home
Yah they will bring you home
