She had her heart set on Mexico
One day she packed her bags and said she'd go
Before she left she said all her goodbyes
Her father wasn’t there, her mother cried
She wrote a letter home
Mother, how are you?
Forward speaking, in tongues
She had places she should go
Maybe somewhere, Mexico
One day she got a letter in the mail
It was her mother saying all is well
She said her father needed her to pray
She said momma I’ll be home someday
And she’s callin’ home
And her father spoke
It’s been such a long time
He didn’t realize
she was ever alone
And she’s callin’ home
And her mother spoke
It’s been such a long time
Together they cried
She’s on her way home
And now she’s home
One day she packed her bags and said she'd go
Before she left she said all her goodbyes
Her father wasn’t there, her mother cried
She wrote a letter home
Mother, how are you?
Forward speaking, in tongues
She had places she should go
Maybe somewhere, Mexico
One day she got a letter in the mail
It was her mother saying all is well
She said her father needed her to pray
She said momma I’ll be home someday
And she’s callin’ home
And her father spoke
It’s been such a long time
He didn’t realize
she was ever alone
And she’s callin’ home
And her mother spoke
It’s been such a long time
Together they cried
She’s on her way home
And now she’s home

Well I think the lyrics are self-explanatory, robotlikestofu. A girl wanted to get away from home for a while and headed to Mexico. They write letters back and forth to keep in touch, and finally she decides to come back home.
