[verse 1]

kneel to pray before we eat
before we go to bed
my mother said, she said i had a saviour

but it seems my dreams have lost their way
bound for flame on judgement day
i pray that i get out on good behaviour

so baptise me, oh cleanse my soul
forgive me for the hearts i stole
it starts to take a toll as you grow older

deliver me out of the hands
of wolves in wool and sinner’s plans
eternity’s a burden i can shoulder

[chorus]

oh, time has never stayed this slow
oh, try to take me as your own
oh, i was better off alone
i was better on my own
lord i’m coming home

[bridge]

come on now, take me in
hear it howling in the blowing wind, i said
come on now, bless my soul
i fear i feel we’re growing old, i said
come on now, take me in
if i die, oh let me live, i said
come on now, bless my soul
it’s cold out here, oh don’t you know, i said

come on now, take me in
hear it howling in the blowing wind, i said
come on now, bless my soul
i fear i feel we’re growing old, i said
come on now, take me in
if i die, oh let me live, i said
come on now, bless my soul
it’s cold out here

[chorus]

oh, time has never stayed this slow
oh, try to take me as your own
oh, i was better off alone
i was better on my own
i was better on my own
lord i’m coming home

[verse 2]

oh st philomena
how i prayed for a return
just learn that we have been forsaken

but with that big book on the shelf
maybe i’ll convince myself
to share the loss, and bear the cross you’ve taken
