surprising
nor is it unfamiliar, how it takes a

you know you'll always be my

I could never do you wrong
and the one who was gone for

so long is coming

home

in the love between a
Am
mama and her
D
children
Am
and the procession down to the
D
lighthouse
Am
we hear the crashing of the
D
waves, and the mistakes we
Em
made, you know that we are not the only
Am
ones, so we can
D
have some fun, have some, have some, have some, have some fun
