Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All the time on my mind
And I wonder where you are
Touching hands, making plans
Now the golden time alone
Hey, my life, don't go your way
Just say it's okay

I'm gonna walk into the sun
I wanna tell you you're my one
And one day you'll find your way back home
I'm gonna reach into the night
And tell ya everything's alright
And one day you'll find your way back home

You'll find your way back home

I'm gonna walk into the sun
I wanna tell you you're my one
And one day you'll find your way back home
I'm gonna reach into the night
And tell ya everything's alright
And one day you'll find your way back home

All the time on my mind
And I wonder where you are
Touching hands, making plans
Now the golden time alone
Hey, my life, don't go your way
Just say it's okay

I'm gonna walk into the sun
I wanna tell you you're my one
And one day you'll find your way back home
I'm gonna reach into the night




And tell ya everything's alright
And one day you'll find your way back home
