I know you're gone
I watched you leave
I always thought
That it was me
You made it clear
With that last kiss
You couldn't live a life
With maybe's and whatif's
When every boat
Has sailed away
And every path
Is marked and paved
When every road
Has had it's say
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stay [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/josh_groban/home_to_stay.html ]
I have the cards you sent to me
You wrote of trains and paris galleries
This spring you'll draw
Canals, and frescoed walls
Look how far your dreaming's gone
When every town looks just the same
When every choice gets hard to make
When every map is put away
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stay
And now I know why you had to go alone
Isn't there a place between
When every boat
Has sailed away
And every path
Is marked and paved
When every road
Has had it's say
Then I'll be bringing you back
Home to stay
Reach out to me
Call out my name
And I would bring you back again
Today

To me, the song is filled with very deep emotions. I relate directly to my father who had undergone emergency surgery and was trying to survive in icu and then we eventually brought him home to die. When hospice got involved and said he has 72 hours, we brought him home. He was a very powerful living being, and this song has deep emotion that i relate my dad's last days to. When i hear it, i start to cry but it's coming to terms with it all that helps me.
