Joanne Shaw Taylor - White Sugar

Going Home

Tell my mother she'll be on my mind
Tell my lover not to break this time
Tell my brother and my father too
That I'm sorry, sorry for what I'm gonna do

I won't stay to see my son come around
My head's held under a heavier cloud
All I am is all I'm meant to be
Losing hope has only brought me peace

My bones and my fingers lie
As long as the [?]
Somewhere is Zion
Now only God
Now only God is on my mind

I'm going home
I'm going home
Going home to rest my soul

Don't seek reason in life's misery
Don't take comfort in the words they preach
Don't crave compassion from your enemy
They won't fight fair when you're down on your knees

No, I won't swim this tide
This is a storm I cannot ride, I can't lie
Cause I know time, I know time's not on my side

I'm going home
I'm going home
Going home to rest my soul

I'm going home
I'm going home
Going home to rest my soul

I'm going home
I'm going home to rest my soul
