My Father called me up
Said you better come home
We heard from the doctor
and I don't think I can tell her on my own.
We found a dark spot in your mother's chest
I try to hold it all together but I'm such a mess

Pre Chorus:
All you lost and all you gain
Sometimes things just can't stay the same
All you lost and all you gain
Sometimes things just can't stay the same

Chorus:
And I'm almost home
Right where I'm suppose to be
Well, I'm almost home
Won't you leave a light on for me.
cause I'm almost home...

She use to take my photograph every first day of school
She use to teach me how to fight so I'd be nobody's fool.

Pre Chorus:
All I lost and all I gain
Sometimes things just can't stay the same

Chorus:
And I'm almost home
Right where I'm suppose to be
Well, I'm almost home
Won't you leave a light on for me.
cause I'm almost home...

I'm on a dark field. Running down hill.
On a north born sky. Light will never end.
The light!

Chorus:
Well, I'm almost home
Right where I'm suppose to be
And I'm almost home
Won't you leave a light on for... Shine on me!

Chorus:
almost home
Right where I'm suppose to be
Well, I'm almost home
Back to these familiar streets.
cause I'm almost home...
