about

Just a retelling of the prodigal son story. I'm sure we all scared our folks a little bit when we left to join the circus.

lyrics

They dropped their arms and smiled
The day he joined the circus
Turned their heads and walked inside
There may come a day
When it will not be perfect
We can always say he tried
-- When will the letters start to arrive

Home can be the house on the street where you lived
Home can be the place where you have the most love to give
Home can be the secret world you like to call your own
Wherever you are, wherever you run
Don't forget to write home

He watched the days go by
A life in full color
But he was running out of time
And time has a way
Of killing all the wonder
And putting clouds inside our minds
-- Then the letters start to arrive

Home can be the house on the street where you lived
Home can be the place where you have the most love to give
Home can be the secret world you like to call your own
Wherever you are, wherever you run
Don't forget to write home

'Cause someone might be wondering how you are
Home - 'Cause someone's there to help you sooth your scars
Home - Is never very far

They raised their arms and cried
The day he came from the circus
You see he never left their minds
"And we don't need to know
If it was really worth it
At least we know you tried
-- We've got a box of letters we've been keeping inside"

Home can be the house on the street where you lived
Home can be the place where you have the most love to give
Home can be the secret world you like to call your own
Wherever you are, wherever you run
Wherever you've been, whatever you've done
You can always come home
