[Verse] The clock donât lie, it ticks slow through the night, One more hour âtil he walks through that door, Fingers trace the cracks in the kitchen wall, Silence hums like a lullaby he stole. [Pre-Chorus] Every secondâs a prayer I canât speak, But Iâm holding on to the shape of his name. The wind outsideâs cold, but my heart feels nearâ Heâs coming home, heâs coming home, like rain. [Chorus] Oh, the hours roll like a busted engine, But Iâm counting on the light he brings. One more mile, one more mile, To the sound of his boots on my floor. Yes, Iâm waiting, Iâm waiting, Like a river to the seaâ Heâs coming home, heâs coming home, And Iâm right here, waiting for me. [Verse] The moonâs low, the streetlights cry in blue, But I see his shadow in the hallway glow. A whisper in the wires, a sigh in the airâ Just one more stretch, just one more prayer. [Pre-Chorus] Every secondâs a thread I canât let go, But Iâm walking the line with hope in my hand. Heâll come through that door with a tired soul, And Iâll be waiting, Iâll be standing tall. [Chorus] Oh, the hours roll like a busted engine, But Iâm counting on the light he brings. One more mile, one more mile, To the sound of his boots on my floor. Yes, Iâm waiting, Iâm waiting, Like a river to the seaâ Heâs coming home, heâs coming home, And Iâm right here, waiting for me. [Bridge] Ainât no storm that donât lift, Ainât no midnight that donât end. And if the world should break in twoâ Iâd still be here, still be true. âCause love donât fade in the dark, It just waits for the spark. [Chorus] Oh, the hours roll like a busted engine, But Iâm counting on the light he brings. One more mile, one more mile, To the sound of his boots on my floor. Yes, Iâm waiting, Iâm waiting, Like a river to the seaâ Heâs coming home, heâs coming home, And Iâm right here, waiting for me. [Outro] Coming home⊠One more mile⊠Still here⊠Still here⊠Coming homeâŠ
