Home Again

Verse 1

The station clock is ticking slow tonight

My coat is buttoned high against the chill

I read your letter once again by the lamplight

And the words still keep me warm until

Pre-Chorus

I count the miles on the railroad line

Every one of them a step toward you

Chorus

Hold on to the moon for me

Keep my place beside your window pane

Hold on the way you always do

Till I'm home again home again

Verse 2

The operator's voice comes crackling through

Ten cents a minute but I don't mind

Your hello is all I ever knew

Of every star I've ever had to find

Pre-Chorus

I fold the telegram to my chest

Every word a prayer that's come to rest

Chorus

Hold on to the moon for me

Keep my place beside your window pane

Hold on the way you always do

Till I'm home again home again

Bridge

One day soon this distance bends

Into a doorway I walk through

And every lonely mile we spent

Will just be letters old and true

Chorus

Hold on to the moon for me

Keep my place beside your window pane

Hold on the way you always do

Till I'm home again home again

Outro

Home again

Home again

Mm
