lyrics
Although I've never been here it sure feels like I've returned
To the place that's always been my home
So many times I've packed my things and gone away
To find out what's compelling me to stay

But nobody could keep me nothing stayed my restlessness
Always felt the world could offer more
Than office hours, mundane tasks and coffee breaks
And TV-dinner meals most every night

I will gladly stand up straight and testify my love
And carry out the sentence I receive
But I've already done my time so please do what you will
I'm never walking down that road again

I've never felt this scared and yet so happy anywhere
Always thought I'd wind up somewhere else
But it doesn't matter, things have turned out for the best
Now I can walk the distance 'cause I've found the way

I will gladly stand up straight and testify my love
And carry out the sentence I receive
But I've already done my time so please do what you will
I'm never walking down that road again

I will gladly stand upp tall and testify my love
And face whatever judgement I deserve
But I've already paid my dues so turn the other cheek
I promise I will make the most of it
