Welcome Home from Welcome Home by D. Gross

Welcome home where you been
high and dry on a mountain
you gave up talking cause you
had some thoughts to go through

Welcome home old friend I
been here watching time fly
I guess you missed some news but
it’s mostly watching doves cry high

So what’d you see on your mountain
did you drink from the Buddha’s fountain
you make new friends with the bird life
ever write home to your dear wife
was the sunrise smilin’
while you dreamt on your moonlight island
did you miss the sounds of the city
as the rain strummed on to infinity

Well me I been talkin’ daily
stealing time with my one love lady
taking naps like a little old baby
thinking the world just done gone crazy
stretching out like a summertime breeze and
feeling mixed up ‘bout things I seen and
walkin’ around so my feet don’t freeze and
holdin’ tight to the rest of my dreams and

Sometimes I imagine I’m a mountain
lose track of the things I’m counting
settle in while the pressure’s mounting
get rid of all my doubts and
let it flow like a springtime stream and
pick a tune that reminds me of a dream and
think of you and the hours you spent and
bring your mountain right here to my apartment

Welcome home where'd you been
high and dry on a mountain
you gave up talking cause you
had some thoughts to go through
