He opened the door and walked away,
Sometimes the simplest step is all it takes,
N' from the mountain, he can watch it all burn,
Welcome friend, to the point of no return
Once in a life, you can find a time to see,
and you get to take it down, turn around, temporary sanity
And then the mountain disappears without a trace,
And all it took, was a sudden leap of faith
(Homeward, let your spirit rise, )
Darling, I'm waiting for you
(Homeward, one step at a time)
(Homeward, watchin' like a child)
When will I reach the ocean
(I'm filled with mixed emotion)
(I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you)
I'm waiting for you baby
(I'll wait for you)
(I'll wait for you)
Highway one
N' the fog rolled back to sea
He was overcome, by how it happened all so easily,
And as he stood there, with the moonlight on his face,
He was stunned by a sudden leap of faith.
Darling, I'm waiting for you
(Homeward, one step at a time)
(Homeward, watchin' like a child)
When will I reach the ocean,
Moving in slow motion now
(You know it's the truth)
(You've done all a man can do)
{long instrumental, scat break}
Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watchin' like a child,
Homeward, let your spirit rise,
Homeward, one step at a time,
Homeward, watch it like a child,
Homeward
