The Home for My Heart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A summer back when I was young Fifteen years old, my life just begun A boy of nineteen caught my eye Showed me kindness, never asked me why He treated me so gentle and true Something in his heart I always knew [Chorus] Oh, the home for my heart was waiting Through all the years, through all the miles Love don't follow any timing It just shows up and stays awhile And I'm grateful, I'm so grateful For the peace I've finally found [Verse 2] Forty winters came and went Two separate lives, two roads we spent Then a table by the water's edge A chance meeting, an unspoken pledge I felt the pull, I knew his face Like time had saved us both a place [Chorus] Oh, the home for my heart was waiting Through all the years, through all the miles Love don't follow any timing It just shows up and stays awhile And I'm grateful, I'm so grateful For the peace I've finally found [Bridge] Craig, you saved me for the last You held the future, healed the past Through every storm we walked on through I'd choose it all to land with you [Verse 3] Now the mornings come so soft and slow Coffee, laughter, all the love we know Family gathered, hands in mine A devotion deeper than time Craig, you are the dream I held The man my younger heart could tell [Chorus] Oh, the home for my heart is standing Right beside me, steady and warm Love, you're worth the long, long waiting You're my shelter from every storm And I'm grateful, I'm so grateful For this life we've finally found [Outro] Craig, my love, my lifetime, my own My heart has found its forever home
