The Girl That I Call Home

You dipped your toe into the water

But you never thought an ordinary life

Could cut you like a knife

You're everything I ever wanted

But a man would rather writhe upon a cross

Than ever feel the loss

Please don't worry

I'm not sorry

Not for a life that I can't own

I'll seek forgiveness

Will I need a witness

Or the girl that I call home?

You get to walk among the flowers

I'm a man who tries to hide away his scars

Beyond the sea of stars

You seem to find a higher power

And when part of me is darker than the night

You fill the void with light

Please don't worry

I'm not sorry

For a life that can't be known

Princes adore you

They cower before you

You're the girl that I call home

Please don't worry

I'm not sorry

Not for a life that I can't own

I'll seek forgiveness

Will I need a witness

Or the girl that I call home?

Please don't worry

I'm not sorry

For a life that can't be known

Princes adore you

They cower before you

You're the girl that I call home
