A journey thru a man's life from childhood to old age, always wanting to go home.

Hi, I am a 39 year old father of 5. I've been singing and writing since i was a teen and just love performing. I still sing in church regularly and anywhere else when I get the chance.

Verse 1:
He's Just a little boy, Barely 5 years old
Off to his first sleepover, at a buddie's down the road
After all the food and games, and the fun times to be had
He's off to get some rest, tucked in his sleeping bag
It's awful quiet now, as darkness settles in
He's starting to get worried, and he softly prays to Him
Chorus:
I miss my mom and dad, I miss my own bedroom
I miss my dog and cat, I miss my brothers and sisters too
And I'm lying here alone, and I think I'm scared to death
I'm just praying for some comfort lord, cause i'm not ready to take this step
I want to go Home
Verse 2:
He's now a fine young man, 18 years old
Finally off to college, first time on his own
After all the classes end, and the party's settle down
He's off to get some rest, when no-one is around
It's awful quiet now, as darkness settles in
He's starting to get worried, and he softly prays to Him
Chorus:
I miss my mom and dad, I miss my old bedroom
I miss my highschool friends, I miss my brothers and sisters too
And I'm lying here alone, and I think I'm scared to death
I'm just praying for some comfort lord, cause i'm not ready to take this step
I want to go Home
Verse 3:
He's a fragile old man, 94 years old
Lying in a hospital bed, trying to hold his own
After all the cures are tried, the pain won't go away
He's off to get some rest, could this be his final day?
It's awful quiet now, as darkness settles in
This time he isn't worried, as he softly prays to Him
Chorus:
I miss my mom and dad, I miss my own bedroom
I miss my darling wife, I miss my brothers and sisters too
And I'm lying here alone, for once not scared to death
I'm just praying for some comfort lord, cause i'm ready to take this step
I want to go Home
I'm praying for your comfort lord, Yes i'm ready to take this step
Lord, I'm coming Home...............
