Don't know till I come back to be at home
I know rough time have hit the friends you know
I said i would be home soon
But the business trip took me further than the moon
I know your waiting for me
And I'll be there
While I'm away I thought you might like some things to do
Your brothers farm needs some hands
And down the road you'll get your share of food
I know your waiting for me
And I'll be there soon
I know it's real hard work to do
But.
Keep your eyes on heaven you'll gain the earth as well
Because I'd give you the world
The hour's near eleven, the lakes of fire swell
But I'll would give you the world
...
Dear son
Something came up today
I need you to run into town
I haven't heard from my family there
And, as of late, strange stories abound
I know they're waiting for me
Like you choose to do
But letters sometimes go astray
So let them know that I'm here and I miss them too
And if they'd aim at heaven they'd gain the earth as well
Cause I'd give them the world
The hour's near eleven, the lakes of fire swell
But I would give you the world
