I've been wandering

So long on these open roads

Carrying stories

That no one really knows

I'm tired of the questions

I'm tired of the doubt

Searching for shelter

Where I'm not left out

I need a calm in the storm

Not a battle line

Someone to lean

On when the world's unkind

No more faking a smile

With my guard on high

I just want a refuge

Where my heart can lie

I'm looking for a place called home

Not a war zone

Somebody who will stand

By me so I'm never alone

No words of blame

In every breath they say

Just love and faith

That never fades away

I'm looking for a place called home

Where trust can grow

'Cause I've carried these burdens

Far too long on my own

I want someone who sees

Me for who I am

Not a list of problems

But a heart they understand

Don't want to defend

My hopes or my dreams

I just need to be heard

Need a hand that redeems

I'm done with the fights

And the walls we build

I want the kind of bond

That can't be killed

We'll rise together

When the nights get cold

'Cause that's the kind of love

I want to hold

I'm looking

For a place called home

Not a war zone

Somebody who will stand

By me so I'm never alone

No words of blame

In every breath they say

Just love and faith

That never fades away

I'm looking for a place called home

Where trust can grow

'Cause I've carried these burdens

Far too long on my own

Let's trade fire for forgiveness

Let's turn heartbreak into hope

If you're by my side in darkness

I know together we can cope

(We can cope)

I'm looking for a place

Called home, not a war zone

No more fighting for acceptance

I need a safety I've never known

Hold my heart gently

And never let go

That's how I'll finally feel

I'm not alone

Looking for a place called home

Not a war zone

I'm ready to trust

Ready to grow

Take me to a place called home
