Frank Turner - The Fastest Way Back Home lyrics

I should have seen you were coming
I should have been prepared after all
Getting half of what you wish
For isn't so rare but still I wasn't ready
You took me by surprise
You brought a light to dark like
A word from the wise

Weather wears the mountains right
Down into the sea
So I will stand in the rain until I am clean

We fell in love in the summer
When the skies were clear
But, I'm still wearing my coat
From winter last year
I need to set my house in order
Confess and cover my sins
I need to make a home for
You before inviting you in

Weather wears the mountains right
Down into the sea
So I will stand in the rain until I am clean
Rivers carve the country
A landscape shaped by a stream
So I will swim in the river
For as long as you need

I say darling, oh my darling
You know that everything that I do
Is to try to make me good enough for you
Darling, oh my darling
You know that everywhere that I go
I'm just trying to find the
Fastest way back home

Back Home! Back Home!

Darling, oh my darling
You know that everywhere that I go
I'm just trying to find the
Fastest way back home
