No Wrong Way Home

I hope your dreams, don't feel small
and when the wind begins to rise, I hope your mast stands straight and tall
These are fragile times, we blur the lines
in the unlikeliest of places, we all find a little grace
…and there's no wrong way home

One winter coat, two wild eyes
all the unspoken love that you're carrying inside
These ain't the calmest days, but you like it that way
won't you rest a while in the storm’s peaceful eye?

It ain't where you been, but where you're going to
it's not where you're from, but where you belong
….and there's no wrong way home

The spiraled shell, the golden mean
you see you’re just the sum of those who've been
down this road before…you were expecting more?
It won’t hurt to rest a while…the soft shoulder by your side
...and there’s no wrong way home

I didn’t choose you, you didn’t chose me
for the briefest, flashing moment, kept each other company
Then we’re on our own, wheeling restless bones
and I’ll see you by and by … two unlikely butterflies

It ain't where you been, but where you're going to
it's not where you're from, but where you belong
...and there's no wrong way home

We go 0 to 9, never reaching 10
because we turn ourselves over and start it all again
I guess I’m still a child guess I’ll never learn…
part of me still likes to watch an odometer turn
...and there’s no wrong way home

One blue-green world, round as a pearl
doesn't matter which road you take, you’ll wind up in the same place
Thats not philosophy, its geometry
and if things don’t look the same, well it’s only you who’ve changed

It ain't where you been, but where you're going to
it's not where you're from, but where you belong
...and there's no wrong way home

So I hope your plans accounted for rain
I hope you stashed a few dreams where you might find them once again
These are the best of days, it never feels that way
it’s only in the rearview mirror, these things become clearer
...and there’s no wrong way home

One braid for laughter, one for fear
I tied ‘em both together, cuz it was always windy here
And don’t take this wrong, but I never knew
were you watching over me, or I was watching over you..?

It ain't where you been, but where you're going to
it's not where you're from, but where you belong
...and there's no wrong way home
