My eye just caught that old familiar tree line That Hudson River Valley stretched below From a bank and country road That I don't see much anymore But today, I can say I'm coming home A storm ahead reveals a broken sunset Like a fire burning heavy in my soul For every aching heart And all the wrong that I have done Oh, today, I can say that I'm coming home It's been a long, hard road coming The devil, he must know That I've been running slow Oh, today I'm coming home Floating to the arms of my family This love I took for granted all my days As I lay you down and prepare You take my last deep breath of air I pray this sinner's soul will find it's way It's been a long, hard road coming The devil, he must know That I've been running slow Oh, today I'm coming home It's been a long, hard road coming The angels, they must know That I've been running slow Oh, oh, I'm coming home
