Almost Home

Mariah Carey · Other Songs - Mariah Carey

Hey, hey,..

You're almost home

You're almost home

You're almost home



I've seen the light in the sky

In the skies are like fireflies

Burning bright, just to vanish in the dark



I've held hope in my two hands

That there would be another chance

To find the kingdom, I'm believing in my heart

Cause underneath the good there's something greater than you know



When you're almost there

And you're almost home

Just open up your eyes and go, go

When you're almost there, almost home

Know you're not alone

You're almost home



When you run, run so far

You've forgotten who you are

Where you're from, it's like some other universe

You count your steps, like they're regrets

You catch one breath then lose the rest

Wrong is right, right is left

And there's nowhere left to turn



So don't believe in everything

You think, you think you know



When you're almost there

And you're almost home

Just open up your eyes and go, go

When you're almost there, almost home

Know you're not alone

You're almost home



When you let your heart be the compass

You won't get lost, not if you trust it

When you hear the sound of the trumpet

Louder than ever before



Oh, when you're almost there

Almost home

Just open up your eyes and go, go

Cause you're almost there

Almost home

Know you're not alone

You're almost home



When you're almost there

Almost home

Just open up your eyes and go, go

Almost there

You're almost home

Know you're not alone

You're almost home
