With a smile through his tears,
He said I can see you made it,
I have waited for years,
Sometime my heart was breaking,
I knew you were strong,
but you chose to stand alone,
I watched every stone ,
that you fell on,
I saw you stumbling home.

I wondered for years,
how you could take it,
Through my tears,
my heart was aching.
You can't always make right,
every wrong,
All you can do,
when you write the song,
Is to tell what is true,
of the life you have known.

You became a humble man.
I watched you fall and rise again.
You have never been truly alone.
I watched every stone ,
that you fell on.
I saw you stumbling home.
