home (a song)

i took the train, i walked
the dusty gravel roads,
i heard the summer birds
like water to my thirsty soul,
i took a train and cried
'cause i couldn't find my home.

ah but that was sixty-nine
when we first cracked the code,
my hair made them crazy then
but i knew we found the motherlode,
ya that was sixty-nine
but none of us could find our home.

oh but we found each other
we loved the gentleness we shared,
we were sisters and brothers
and lovers too whenever we dared.
ya we found each other
and that became our home...

i take the train, i walk
the seasons into my heart,
but its not all history
this indelible, sacred mark,
this is home, right on brothers
home is what can't keep us apart...
