Frank Turner - The Fastest Way Back Home lyrics

I should have seen you were coming, I should have been prepared. After all, getting half of what you wish for isn't so rare. But still I wasn't ready, You took my by surprise, You brought a light to my dark like a word from the wise. Weather wears the mountains right down into the sea, So I will stand in the rain until I am clean. We fell in love in the summer, when the skies were clear, But I'm still wearing my coat from winter last year. I need to set my house in order, confess and cover my sins. I need to make a home for you before inviting you in. Weather wears the mountains right down into the sea, So I will stand in the rain until I am clean. Rivers carve the country, a landscape shaped by a stream, So I will swim in the river for as long as you need. I said Darling oh my darling you know that everything that I do Is to try to make me good enough for you. Darling oh my darling you know that everywhere that I go, I'm just trying to find the fastest way back home Back home Back home Darling oh my darling you know that everywhere that I go, I'm just trying to find the fastest way back home
