DESCRIPTION:
Original song based on story in Luke 15. Performance at one of the worship services of the South Bay Church www.southbaychurch.us. Here are the lyrics:
The Prodigal
It's a strong addiction and you feel
There's nowhere you can go
Those tears are in your eyes
You cry, but there's no one there to know
Mmmn
It seemed you had it all
So tall, the world was at your feet
But now you've slipped so low
You crave
But there's nothing left to eat
Mmmmn
I'm waiting for you
It's all that I can do
My arms are open wide
There's nowhere you can hide
I'll run to you
I'll hold you so close
I'll be here when you come home
Just turn and run my way
You know that I am here for you
Don't be to proud to start again
Too blind to see the truth
Mmmmn
(chorus)
Home
When you come home
There'll be a celebration
That your home
I'll throw my arms around you
We'll feast until the dawn
I've watched for you
Since you've been gone
(chorus)
