Away from Home

She lived in the same town for her whole life for as long as she needs
Her reasons to stay always outweighed her reasons to leave
From her mother and father and friends and the one that she loves
We all can attest she belongs on the wings of the road

She stands stands in the rain
Looks at the stars they're writing her name
And she will go wherever she can
To see us again Is out of my hands
Again

She packs up her suitcase with all that she needs to survive
And patiently waits on the sidewalk for her ride to arrive
It'll take her to somewhere that's nowhere that she's ever been
With a new pair of boots and an old coat and a new set of skin

She stands stands in the rain
Looks at the stars they're writing her name
And she will go wherever she can
To see us again Is out of my hands
I know that somebody is coming to take her away from home
I know that she has been waiting for someone to come along

She stands stands in the rain
Looks at the stars they're writing her and calling her name
Wherever she goes it seems okay to leave her alone
I know that somebody is coming to take her away from home
I know that she has been waiting for someone to come along, along
I can see how strong, she's strong
She can say
I will not always stand in line stand in line no more
I will not always hide behind hide behind my door
I know that somebody's coming to take her away
And I know to let her fly away
