When I Get Home
4HIM · Face the Nation [1991]
The best of friends
And time was on our side
We thought the world was in our hands
We were young and full of life
But in the twinkling of a moment
Before a chance to say "so long"
You were taken from our world
And now you're gone
CHORUS
But I'll see you when I get home
In the sweet bye and bye
We'll walk along the streets of Gold
With angels by our side
Time will have no meaning there
In a land of no goodbye's
Oh it's Good to know
I'll see you when I get home
Oh what a celebration I hope
You all will come
The Father now is waiting and
Soon He'll call us home
