[Intro]
Been gone so long
But I know that scent
On the wind
Calling me back again
[Verse 1]
Got a hole in my chest like a missing word
Like a name on my tongue that I never heard
Like a map in my palm made of burning lines
Every step that I take, I’m between worlds
I keep reaching for more but it’s never enough
All this glitter and glass turns to silent dust
When the crowd fades out and the noise runs dry
I’m that child at the window asking why
[Chorus]
I’m homesick for the mystery
For a love that’s bigger than this history
Every breath a little liturgy
Every tear a way back home
I’m reaching through the smoke and screens
Past the rush and the small routines
I’m longing like a half-remembered dream
My soul remembers home
My soul remembers home (oh)
[Verse 2]
I talk to the sky when the room feels tight
Let my knees hit the floor just to feel some light
In the green of the leaves, in a stranger’s eyes
I can taste that grace I can’t describe
Hands in the dirt, heart in the storm
Pouring myself into those who mourn
In the brush of paint, in a quiet song
I disappear, then I come back strong
[Chorus]
I’m homesick for the mystery
For a love that’s bigger than this history
Every breath a little liturgy
Every tear a way back home
I’m reaching through the smoke and screens
Past the rush and the small routines
I’m longing like a half-remembered dream
My soul remembers home
My soul remembers home (yeah)
[Bridge]
When I feel too small for this wide wide plan
When I don’t know where I stand
I just lift these empty hands
Let the silence answer back
When the ache feels sharp and wild
I remember I’m the child
Of a place beyond the sky
And this hunger is the sign
[Chorus]
I’m homesick for the mystery
For a love that’s bigger than this history
Every breath a little liturgy
Every tear a way back home
I’m reaching through the smoke and screens
Past the rush and the small routines
I’m longing like a half-remembered dream
My soul remembers home
My soul remembers home (ooh)
My soul remembers home
