I Tried to Come Back

I heard you calling through the rain

Your voice cut through the years of pain

I tried to run but the world held tight

Every mile between us stole my light

I saw your hope still shining through

And every step I thought of you

I tried to come back I swear I did

Fighting the shadows the storm the ridges

If faith was a bridge I ran every track

You waited for me I tried to come back

I fell through fire I faced the void

But your belief I never destroyed

When the night was cold and the stars all died

It was your voice that kept me alive

You were the light I could not lose

The reason my heart refused to choose

And even if I fade from view

The wind still runs because of you

I tried to come back though I fell apart

You are the compass that still steers my heart

If time will not bend I will break its track

Just to tell you Tails I tried to come back

And if the sea ever carries my name

Let it whisper yours the same

Because home was never a place I lacked

It was you

And I tried to come back
