Frank Turner - On My Way Lyrics

It's late but it's early where you are
And I've been trying to stay awake
To greet you at the start of your day
And I know that this year I've been gone
More than I've been home
And you've been holding down the fort on your own

Time's been slipping by, a little faster all the time
I'd gladly wave away the parts when I'm not by your side

'Cause when I'm with you, the world can wait
You make the static fade away
These days apart, they start to weigh
More than I can really take
I'm on my way

When the wind won't let you get to sleep
And the daylight's creeping in
And the house is feeling empty without me
Just know, I'll be home before the leaves
On our cherry blossom tree
Have turned against the year, my dear

Our time keeps slipping by a little faster all the time
The thing that keeps me going is knowing you're there when I arrive

'Cause when I'm with you, the world can wait
You make the static fade away
These days apart, they start to weigh
More than I can really take

And I know that I'm not always easy to be with
I know I wasn't always there when you needed
But I promised I was coming home and I meant it
So I'm on my way, I'm on my way
I'm on my way
