Coming Home for Summer

We started in October, drowned our sins in cold November rain Thoughts all through December, prayed for snow to cover up the pain Been so long under winter's night, waiting for the sun Watching the horizon Everybody's coming home for summer But still feels a thousand miles away What a feeling, taste the freedom there with every bite Finally, we're coming home, oh, home We shadow-boxed the enemy, swing until we extradite our fears They're backed into a corner, I ring the bell, we shed our blood and tears Like hibernating sun-rays, hoping for the sun Watching the horizon Everybody's coming home for summer But still feels a thousand miles away What a feeling (what a feeling), taste the freedom (freedom) There with every bite, finally we're coming home Oh, we suffered in silence, through storms And through violence We've stayed our way Yet, the waves have subsided, the clouds have divided, and I found a reason to survive, found the will to stay alive That will be the last thing that we do Heading for summer Back home for summer Everybody's coming home for summer (everybody) But still feels a thousand miles away What a feeling (what a feeling), taste the freedom (taste the freedom) There with every bite Finally, we're coming home (hm) Oh, we're coming home (hm) Oh, I'm coming home (hm)
