Airport

Just one more night in this place,
just one more hour flying through space,
I rest my head against the window,
Pain is separation, away is decimation,
whats my destination.

Been living outta suitcases for longer than I want to believe.
Can't wait for the last line and luggage receipt.
Home is a welcome thought as I leave these foreign shores.
But when I reached home I found that home is not my home anymore than where I was before. What am I looking for?

Another night in a hotel bed,
recollecting the day and what was said.
Why does all the earth feel distant, this doesnt
feel like home to me. Maybe home is someplace I can't see.
When the day comes and I pay my dues, pack up the suitcase the last time though,
then fly though space and come home to You. That's when I'll be home.

Been living outta suitcases for longer than I want to believe.
Can't wait for the last line and luggage receipt.
Home is a welcome thought as I leave these foreign shores.
But when I reached home I found that home is not my home anymore than where I was before. What am I looking for?

I know you're waiting up for me.
Preparing a feast for the hungry.
Building shelter for Pilgrims so weary.
When we finally cross over,
lay down our crosses and come alive,
Home is inside, your arms.

Just one more night in this place...
