All My Runnin'

My heart told me go out tonight
Into the fading city light
I didn't want to, felt so tired
But when it speaks to me so clear
Got no excuses 'cept my fear
So onto that city bus I sighed

Standing in that cafe line
How is it you can read my mind
And now I know exactly why I'm here
You beat me by a couple years
Following that compass as it steers
Us northward to this gentle land

Oh let's go home together
Far beyond these waves
Darlin' all my runnin'
Led me to your face

I couldn't help but start to smile
Been by myself for all this while
Waitin' for so long but for whom
And now I see you sittin' there
With your heart blazing bold and bare
And everything I need is in this room

Oh let's go home together
Far beyond these waves
Darlin' all my runnin'
Led me to your face

How first do you say hello
To someone you already know
Or maybe you say nothing at all
But this is the forever now
So I seize the time we have and bow
To love's eternal merciful grace

Oh let's go home together
Far beyond these waves
Darlin' all my runnin'
Led me to your face
