Verse 1
Mama said child don't you roam
I've been counting every mile
Every mile back to my home
Packed my bag and I said goodbye
Left the city and its noise
Lord I'm running out of time
Running home to hear your voice
Pre-Chorus
Hold on now it won't be long
I can almost see the light
Every step I'm getting strong
I'll be there before the night
Chorus
I'm going home to see my father
Hold on now it won't be long
Doing my best I'm trying to make it
Giving my all I gotta be strong
Meet my father in the sky
It won't be long
In a blink of an eye
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh it won't be long
(It won't be long)
Oh-oh I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
Verse 2
Weathered hands and a heavy heart
Worn down by the years
But the promise keeps me walking
Through the doubt and through the tears
I stumbled and I fell down
Got back up and pressed on
Every sunrise is a gift now
Every breath a brand new song
Pre-Chorus
Hold on now it won't be long
I can almost see the light
Every step I'm getting strong
I'll be there before the night
Chorus
I'm going home to see my father
Hold on now it won't be long
Doing my best I'm trying to make it
Giving my all I gotta be strong
Meet my father in the sky
It won't be long
In a blink of an eye
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh it won't be long
(It won't be long)
Oh-oh I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
Bridge
Wado for the road I walk
Wado for the ones I love
Wado for the strength to carry on
When the road gets rough
Wado for the morning
Wado for the grace
Wado for the promise
That I'll see your face
Chorus
I'm going home to see my father
Hold on now it won't be long
Doing my best I'm trying to make it
Giving my all I gotta be strong
Meet my father in the sky
It won't be long
In a blink of an eye
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh it won't be long
(It won't be long)
Oh-oh I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
Oh-oh it won't be long
(It won't be long)
