The Wind Will Take You Home
©2017 Tom Eure
Kind blessings to you my dear friend
For you always gave your best
God speed, God Speed, to your destiny
Where you’ve surely earned your rest
There’s a light that shines on the other side
T’was a beacon e’er you roamed
Good tips your scales
So set leeward sails
And the wind will take you home
There’s a field of thistle on a hill
That reminds me of you
For I feel their thorns on this day
But see your smile in every bloom
There’s a light that shines on the other side
T’was a beacon e’er you roamed
Good tips your scales
So set leeward sails
And the wind will take you home
Dear loved ones many on the path
Don’t you stop to hang your head
Look up, look up, drink from the cup
There’s no sting, but joy instead
There’s a light that shines on the other side
T’was a beacon e’er you roamed
Good tips your scales
So set leeward sails
And the wind will take you home
Many things I long to ask you
But right now my question’s, why
I’ll tell my selfish heart we’ll meet another day
When given wings, you fly
There’s a light that shines on the other side
T’was a beacon e’er you roamed
Good tips your scales
So set leeward sails
And the wind will take you home
