James Fortune - Homesick Lyrics

Sometimes the hardest part isn't leaving It's admitting that what you left Him for Could never love you the same Tired of running

I packed my pride and left Your grace Chased all the lights, lost in the haze Tried to fill a God-shaped space with broken things I can't replace I know it's on me, but I thought I could do it all alone There's so much noise The louder the world, the lonelier I got The deeper the drink, the more that I forgot Forgot who I was Who I was and where I belong Calling out with this song

I'm Homesick I'm Homesick I'm Homesick, I'm Homesick I was wrong 'Cause I should've never left You For the arms that hold me when I'm a mess I'm exhausted Tired of running, tired of all the lies (Today) I gotta make a decision And it's not an easy one With tears in my eyes I don't belong out here

I'm Homesick, I'm Homesick And I wanna come back Home (God) Back to where I belong It's time I just need the cure

When I ran out of options You still ran after me Freedom felt like chains (Yeah) But Your grace removed all the shame Now that I've come back to You You didn't make me feel like I didn't belong You didn't look at at me different

You threw a party like I never left once (Yeah) Cleaned me up like a new fresh pair of Air Force 1's I created this distance I am the prodigal son But God You welcome me with open arms You didn't hide my scars You nurture all of my scars When I'm Home, I feel whole, I Know I cannot live without You

I'm Homesick (Homesick) I'm Homesick, I'm Homesick 'Cause I should've never left You For the arms that hold me when I'm a mess I'm tired of chasing what's been breaking me, uh Tired of running, tired of all the lies Right now I gotta make a decision And it's not an easy one With tears in my eyes I've been everywhere but where I should be

I'm Homesick, I'm Homesick And I wanna come back Home Back to where I belong I'm ready I just need the cure

I need You to see me I need You to see me (It's urgent) It's urgent (God) I just need You to take me back (Yeah) I just need You to take me back 'Cause I'm bleeding and hurting See me See me, it's urgent Yeah, I just need You I just need You to take me back It don't feel the same I just need You to take me back Because right now 'Cause I'm bleeding and hurting

You didn't just take me back, You took me in I'm Home now I'm Home now I'm free now Grace erased it Past is gone now The same love I ran from is what rescued me You didn't have to take me back And I'm Home I'm Home now Feels good to be free I'm free now My past is gone Past is gone now Your love healed what the world tried to break You didn't have to take me back God, You didn't

You didn't have to take me back Your Grace You didn't have to take me back I ran to You, Father You didn't have to take me back You didn't turn me away You didn't have to take me back You welcomed me in
