Going Home
I've been feeling kind of restless.
I've been feeling out of place.
I can hear adistant singing,
a song that I can't write,
but it echoes in what I'm always trying to say
There's a feeling I can't capture. I
t's alwaysjust a prayer away.
I want to know the ending,
things hoped for but not seen,
but I guess that's the point in hoping anyway
CHORUS:
Going home, I'll meet you at the table.
Going home, I'll meet you in the air.
You are never too young to think about it.
Oh, I cannot wait to be home .
I'm confined by my senses
to really know what you are like.
You are more than I can fathom,
more than I can guess,
and more than I can see with human sight.
But I have felt you with my spirit.
I have felt you fill this room.
This is just an invitation,
a sample of the whole,
and I cannot wait to be going home
CHORUS
Face to face how can it be? Face to facehow can it be? Face to face how can it be?

Earth is such a stifling place! The soul doesn't like being grounded by gravity and confined to a body. I mean, we humans do have free will, but when compared to the notion of freedom itself, free will can seem like a taunting consolation prize. Like the saying goes..."just enough rope to hang myself." Well, tonight I'm not "hanging" myself, and that's something to be happy about. I hope you're in a similarly upbeat situation. If not, here's to hoping one's right around the corner.
Btw, the word verification for my comment is "geakn." Now, I know the spelling's a little off, but I still think that Blogger is trying to tell me something. :(
MY FAVORITE SARA GROVES SONG!!!! (well, one of my very favorites)
AND you are coming "home" to Indy...probably in the air right now....YIPEEEEE!!!!
You see, I had no idea what the connotation of "Going Home" was meant to be. Going home to Indiana is pretty exciting. As a matter of fact, you should share with Jen how exciting the "going home" feeling truly is. It's yet another reason for Jen to move to Dallas, right?
Yo, dude. Have a good trip home. Get yourself rested up and refreshed. And when you get home, I can beat you up and remind you of why it's good to come back "home" to Dallas, as well.
