I Will Take You Home Lyrics

Little girl lost In a forest of dreams,
It's a dark old wood And it's damp with dew.
Hoot owl hoots For a moment it seems
Something big and cold Got ahold of you.
Just when everything gets scary,
Daddy's come 'round for his darlin' again.
Hold my hand with your little fingers.
Daddy's loving arms gonna gather you in.
Ain't no way the Bogeyman's can get you,
You can close you eyes, the world is gonna let you,
Your Daddy's here and never will forget you,
I will take you home.
I will take you home.
Gonna carry you back home
In my arms.
I will take you home.
Long is the road We must travel on down.
Short are the legs That will struggle behind.
I wish I knew for sure Just where we're bound,
What we will be doin' And what we're gonna find.
Wherever we go, there will be birds to cheer you
Flowers to color in the fields around.
Wherever we go, I'll be right here near you
You can't get lost when you're always found.
Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you
Your daddy's gonna be right here beside you
If your fears should start to get inside you.
I will take you home.
I will take you home.
Gonna carry you back home
In my arms.
I will take you home.

Brent sang this(and maybe wrote it) as a pledge to his daughter to always be there for her(clean up) Unfortunately he never was able to keep the promise. Lovely song,one of my faves

Love this song, one of my MANY favorites. So heartfelt, I'm sure this had to and be very hard for him to play. I can only hope it brings him peace. "You Can't get Lost When You're always found"..BEAUTIFUL
