I know your life didn't follow down the path that you planned to walk Like a bird that flies too far, with nowhere to rest your wings And if you should fall, descend through the black sky, I will carry you back home I've wasted too much time, and I need to say I know that you've given up damn near everyone But you are still beautiful to your son Sing soft and sweet to me, a melody that could resonate And fill my heart with warmth and joy I just thought maybe you'd hear this and believe You have a son to be proud of Grant me the grace, to know I can't change You and all your wicked ways I need you to face, the boy that you raised If you really love me, take flight with broken wings and come back, to your son You'll always be beautiful to your son This is love when you come back home This is love
