Home before dark
Before the night comes falling
The sun going down
And I can hear you calling
I followed my star
Just to be where you are
But I couldn't get far
In the dark
Home before dark
Before the day deserts me
I looked for my truth
Knowing the truth might hurt me
Been traveling light
Just the head of the night
And I'll be getting home right
Before dark
I've been searching
Can't explain
Looked for reasons
But what I found in me
Know for certain
Things are changing
I've been changing
Now I need you to be
Home where I can see
Home before dark
Before the light escapes me
To be at your side
That's where
the journey takes me
And I've been afraid
If I lost my way
Then I wouldn't be save
Before dark
I've got stories
I wanna tell you
You need to hear them
Maybe then you'll see
That I've found them
Never knowing
They were going
On inside of me
It's where I had to be
Home before dark
Know you'll be waiting for me
To be at your door
And talking to a fool
In the morning
Been so long
The places I know
But I knew i'd get home
Before dark
Because of you
I get home
Before dark
