Taking Us Home

When I saw the churches

The stained glass was gone

And the boxes were empty

I wondered how long

When I saw the blind man

Who can't see the sun

He talked of his army

And some war they won

He prayed for the future

And he prayed for the past

And he said his heart still bleeds

For the wife he once had

When I told the blind man

We're all here alone

He said the strong wind

Was taking us home
