Steven Curtis Chapman - Trying To Get Back Home Lyrics

In the beginning God said let there be He breathed his life into everything The garden air Was pure and sweet And the birds sang welcome home We all know where it goes from there The lie, the bite, the fall And nothing but shame to wear Packing their bags Headed God knows where Into a strange new place called alone

Well, that was then But that was now And that was them But that was all of us somehow

Now we're all trying to get back home Back to the place Where the heart knows it belongs So be kind to yourself And to everyone else On this long and winding road Cause we're all just trying Trying to get back home

And in the beginning We were wild and free Nothing to hide And nothing we had to be Not afraid to dance And not ashamed to sing Cause we knew we couldn't do it wrong

Now we're all trying to get back home Back to the place Where the heart knows it belongs So be kind to yourself And everyone else On this long and winding road And don't believe it If you start feelin' alone Cause we're all just trying to get back home

We're all trying To get back home We're all trying To get back home And we're all trying To get back home You are not alone Not alone We're all trying to get back home

You are not alone We're all trying to get back home

We're all trying To get back home

So be kind to yourself And everyone else On this long and winding road And don't you believe it If you start feelin' alone We're all just trying to get back home
