Daddy's Home Lyrics

Through these halls of stone and time

In evening's hush, I wait and pine

Promises scattered through my awareness

Words you wrote still in my consciousness

Counting days upon the wall

Till I hear your footfall

Each distant sound, my heart believes

Could be you beneath the eaves

(Could it be.. could it be)

Daddy, I hear you coming home

Through winding roads you've roamed

Your steady steps upon the stair

At last, at last you're there

(Ahhh-ah-ahhh)

The clock strikes slow and sure tonight

As memories take their flight

Now your arms around us tight

Every wrong turns into right

All the distance fades away

In this perfect, precious day

Daddy's home, he's here to stay

(Home to stay.. home to stay)
