title: The Prodigal
album: Unguarded
(Amy Grant, Gary Chapman, Robbie Buchanan)
I face the day again
Against the window pane
I remain your closest friend
And wish you back again
You wonder how I feel
You think you've pushed too foar
If only you could see this pen
Scribbling down my heart
[Chorus:]
I'll be waiting
I may be young or old and gray
Counting the days
But I'll be waiting
And when I finally see you come
I'll run when I see you
I'll meet you
But still the days drag on
Why did you decide to go
Did you only need to see
What only time can show
[Chorus]
And even if
You never do return
Still I will have learned
How to love you bettter
[Chorus]
