I'm running home, laid down my bow
I can't believe the war is over now
I wonder where you are, I'm still alive
I washed my hands from blood, laid down my knife
I'm running home, please hold me tight
The war is over now, so no more fight
I hear your voice, the distance is near
I'm coming home, my love don't fear
I seem so secure, please hold me tight
Don't blow the candle out beside my bed
I stumble home to meet you in the morning due
The war is over now, so this is true
And when the King stands up and shouts: It's war again!
I throw my arms away, I'm not his man
No blood and slaughter any more I can assure
So touch my wounds right in the morning due
And outside it's stormy and there's no end in sight
And inside your silence as you switch out the light
I watch your face while you are asleep
A rest in grace I want to keep
Just hold on to this time you'll be fine I promise you:
Every day that you stay in my life I'll take care of you
Every day that you stay in my life I'll take care of you
And outside it's stormy and there's no end in sight
And this time I feel it you need the strength to fight
And sunshine will cut through and fade the darkest night
I light the way so you can see
The road ahead so nearly free
Just hold on to this time you'll be fine I promise you:
Every day that you stay in my life I'll take care of you
Every day that you stay in my life I'll take care of you
