Kneel to pray before we eat
Before we go to bed
My mother said, she said I had a saviour
But it seems my dreams have lost their way
Bound for flame on judgement day
I pray that I get out on good behaviour
So baptise me, oh cleanse my soul
Forgive me for the hearts I stole
It starts to take a toll as you grow older
Deliver me out of the hands
Of wolves in wool and sinner's plans
Eternity's a burden I can shoulder
Oh, time has never stayed this slow
Oh, try to take me as your own
Oh, I was better off alone
I was better on my own
Lord I'm coming home
Come on now, take me in
Hear it howling in the blowing wind, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
I fear I feel we're growing old, I said
Come on now, take me in
If I die, oh let me live, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
It's cold out here, oh don't you know, I said
Come on now, take me in
Hear it howling in the blowing wind, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
I fear I feel we're growing old, I said
Come on now, take me in
If I die, oh let me live, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
It's cold out here
Oh, time has never stayed this slow
Try to take me as your own
I was better off alone
I was better on my own
I was better on my own
Lord I'm coming home
Oh St Philomena
How I prayed for a return
Just to learn that we have been forsaken
But with that big book on the shelf
Maybe I'll convince myself
To share the loss, and bear the cross you've taken
Before we go to bed
My mother said, she said I had a saviour
But it seems my dreams have lost their way
Bound for flame on judgement day
I pray that I get out on good behaviour
So baptise me, oh cleanse my soul
Forgive me for the hearts I stole
It starts to take a toll as you grow older
Deliver me out of the hands
Of wolves in wool and sinner's plans
Eternity's a burden I can shoulder
Oh, time has never stayed this slow
Oh, try to take me as your own
Oh, I was better off alone
I was better on my own
Lord I'm coming home
Come on now, take me in
Hear it howling in the blowing wind, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
I fear I feel we're growing old, I said
Come on now, take me in
If I die, oh let me live, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
It's cold out here, oh don't you know, I said
Come on now, take me in
Hear it howling in the blowing wind, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
I fear I feel we're growing old, I said
Come on now, take me in
If I die, oh let me live, I said
Come on now, bless my soul
It's cold out here
Oh, time has never stayed this slow
Try to take me as your own
I was better off alone
I was better on my own
I was better on my own
Lord I'm coming home
Oh St Philomena
How I prayed for a return
Just to learn that we have been forsaken
But with that big book on the shelf
Maybe I'll convince myself
To share the loss, and bear the cross you've taken
