Counting on days yet to go
All placed on hold

And I know, we'll have a home in forever
I know, we'll walk a last mile together
And I know, we'll have a home in forever
I know, we'll walk a last mile together
And I know, we'll have a home in forever
I know, we'll walk a last mile together
And I know, we'll have a home in forever
I know, we'll walk a last mile together
And I know, we'll have a home in forever
