I've been so afraid that you died yesterday
And nobody knew how to say
That a funeral voice was the easier choice
To saying goodbye to me

I know what I've seen in the towns in-between
Where the faces remind me of you
It's been at me all day, I just want to say
But I choke when I think about you

And I've been so afraid to get lost on the way
That I don't even know where to go
And this moment of blind, it helps me to find
A hand to lead me home

I heard yesterday that you're at home to stay
It's been so long since I've seen your face
You're alive and you're well, but it's not hard to tell
That I'm terrified to hear your voice again
