Elizabeth Wills - Walking Each Other Home

He stepped out into the ocean the storm chased him all the way home
A piece of centrifugal motion and he found himself stranded alone
He didn't know how deep the waters don't show the secrets they keep
Under the waves under the foam
Then from the dark there came a hand not like his but they were the same
Bringing him safe from the unknown
He said tell me your name you don't look like me but we are the same
And the stranger just smiled and said don't you know
We're all here and we're walking each other home

She ended her shift at a diner headed out to find her way home
The voices were always behind her even though she was walking alone
Nobody knows how deep the sorrows don't show the secrets they keep
Under her skin under her smile
Then from the dark there came a hand not like hers but they were the same
Bringing her safe from the unknown
She said please tell me your name you don't look like me but I think we're the same
And the stranger just smiled and said don't you know
We're all here and we're walking other home

The rains may come and the rivers may rise
And the darkness moans in the middle of night
But there is a light
Yes love is a light

A little boy sits at his window waiting for morning to come
His momma went out 3 days ago and he finds himself crying alone
He shouldn't know how deep the hunger and shame and the secrets they keep
Under the guns under his feet
And then from the dark there came a hand not like his but they were the same
Bringing him safe from the unknown
He said what's your name you don't look like me but I think we're the same
And the stranger just smiled and said don't you know
We're all here and we're walking each other home
Yes we're here just walking each other home
