lyrics

Saw the Gate after the journey
And all the lights were waiting for me.
Golden blood flowing through that city,
All was fire, blazing free.

Met a girl, made some money.
Isn't that the way life should be?
I knew that soon I'd have my little corner,
And all that golden blood would be flowing through me.

Hours and violence changed me in a hurry,
A stone alone then, beside the sea.
The threat of injury, and debt and dishonour and all I'd burred deep,
Summoned a darkness, and strange kinds of agony.

And if all had gone to plan, I would not have gone through that.
But if all goes to plan, I might see you again.

There were soon hands from the across the ocean
There were soon friends, and heated conversation.
And all the money was a help I don't doubt.
The charity it hurt my pride, but it was well thought out.

So it was not all bad I'll admit.
There was the hard times and the lessons and that cliche shit, but
I know now what builds a home, and it seems as clear as day to me
What makes a home? Just like every other place,
Home isn't you.
But you gotta know:

That if all had gone to plan, I'd be in very good hands.
And if all goes to plan, I will see you again.

And if all goes to plan, I will see you again.
And if all goes to plan, you will shine out.
And if someone would hold my hand, it would bring your sights to life.
But then that, that would be the plan, and it's in my sights.
