Home By Now/No Matter What


The locusts are singing The sun is red
It's gotten so late somehow
There's gonna be trouble
You know what they said
We should have been home by now
The thunder is rolling The sky is black
Its gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger
God I wish we were back
We Should have been home by now.
We should have been home by now.

No matter what they tell us.
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back

I can't deny what I believe.
I cant be what I'm not
I know I'll love forever.
I know - No matter what
If only tears were laughter.
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered.
Then we would hear God Say:
No matter what they tell you.
No matter what they do.
No matter what they teach you.
What you believe is true
And I will keep you safe and strong.
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where its barren.
A dream is being born
No matter who they follow.
No matter where they lead.
No matter how they judge us I'll be everyone you need.
No matter if the sun don't shine.
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the ending.
My life began with you
I can't deny what I believe.
I cant be what I'm not
I know this love's forever.
That's all that matters now. No matter what

The thunder is rolling.
The sky is black.
Its gotten so dark somehow.
There's gonna be danger.
God! I wish we were back.
We should have been home by now.
We should have been home by now
