Bring Me Home - Sade

The ground is full of broken stones

The last leaf has fallen

I have nowhere to turn now

Not east not west

North or south

And all that’s ahead of me

And everything I know

I know nothing so

So bring me home

Put me on a plate with petals and a fire

And send me out to sea

Turn my angry sword against my heart

And let me free

The dawn holds the heaviness of the night

I’ve heard the restless sighs and lovers lies

The brook, the beach and seen the devil’s eyes

So bring me home

I’ve cried for the lives I’ve lost

Like a child in need of love

I’ve been so close but far away from God

My tears flow like a child’s in need of love

I’ve cried the tears

So let the tide take me

I won’t fight

I’ve cried the tears

The small step I need to take is a mountain

Stretched out like a lazy dog

Send me to slaughter

Lay me on the railway line

I’m far away from God

My tears flow like a child’s in need of love

I’ve cried the tears

So build the fire and light the flame

Bring me home
