I see a face painted clearly now
Images take me back somehow
To the place just beyond my reach
Where only memory is allowed
I see clearly now

Time doesn't erase the colors there
Reaching for You I touch the air
I've got to find my way back home
Loneliness deepens my despair
Hoping You're still there

I'm lonely, Lord (love)
I'm ready to come home
My only love
I've left You all alonе
For much too long

I want to forget ugly stains
I want to wash them in Your rain
I want to laugh with You again
But through the yеars, silent pain
Could any love remain

I'm lonely, Lord (love)
I'm ready to come home
My only love
I've left You all alone
For much too long
I can almost see You
I can almost touch You
I'm hoping You don't say we're through

I'm lonely, Lord (love)
I'm ready to come home
My only love
I've left You all alone
For much too long

I'm lonely, Lord (love)
I'm ready to come home
My only love
I've left You all alone
For much too long
