Things That You Know

It's been a long time since you saw your home
 Even those you call the closest
 Have slipped away somehow
 Feels like a lifetime you've been on the road
 With so many miles behind you
 You'd think you'd have left this world by now
 You've seen more than they could ever know
 No matter what they say
 You've earned the right to be so bold
 But this life it takes its toll on you
 Every face around you looks so tired and so old
 And you have not seen everything
 You have not seen everything
 But there are things that you know
 Things that you know
 From where you've had to go
 Where you've had to go
 Maybe soon you'll find a place
 To call your own
 To call your home
 You've walked a good mile in your brother's shoes
 'Til your legs could walk no further
 And your tired soles would burn
 You know there's peace somewhere around the bend
 It's been a long time coming
 And you're ready for your turn
 And you have not seen everything
 You have not seen everything
 But there are things that you know
 Things that you know
 From where you've had to go
 Where you've had to go
 Maybe soon you'll find a place
 To call your own
 To call your home
