May the waves make you strong
& the wind bring you home ...

... So fill your sails with adventure and your heart with desire,
& when you’ve found it's all illusion ... Head for Home.

Lyrics from Homeward Bound - Coming Home by -bk

Home is where I’m go-in, no matter how long it takes.
For I've been searchin' wide, for a way.
And though I may not understand - so many things
I think I know the answer - and the way.

Chorus:
Truth I’m come-in to know you
Love I’m on my way
- I know I've been away, but I just have to say;
I coming to stay ...

And so I’ll keep on try-in, though I know I'll go astray
Still I know I'll get there - And I'm on my way ...

Now it seems a lifetime, and I've learned so much along the way,
And though it's made me weary, there's a peace I can’t explain ...

And so I'm happy,
and now I have to say; it did me good to be away,
But now I'm coming home to stay ...

Truth I'm coming to know you ...
Love I’m on my way ...
Beauty I’m gon'na see you ...
- Peace and harmony ...

Now this old life can wear you down,
especially when your dreams run out
but don't dispair, come what may
for what goes down, returns someday.

For there's a lot still ahead of us
Such a high road ahead of us,
So keep trying with what's in front of you
... and it will work out, so fine.

I know not where you've been and done, or gone through ...
I just know I'm here to share, care, and comfort you
To empty your head, and fill your heart instead,
with wonder to rise above ... So you may find ... Your Way.

I walked outside. I hugged my dog
- and looked to the sky
It was so bright - sooo nice.
I then knew in my heart,
everything would be all right
- and sooo fine ...

For we're on our way,
to "some day" - to better times.

- Into the night ... Into the fine
... Into "The Light".

Now what can I say? and what can I do?
Though I know, I haven’t been - it's true ...

For I'm only me
Though I know, someday - I will "Be" ...

And your only you ...
What else can you do?
- And if we forgive and forget - we can be free ...

So what more can I say?
And what more can I do?
All I know, is in the heart - in the soul ...

So look to your heart, yes look to the heart ...
The soul, to know - And be free - Free!

Somehow, I know we will find our way,
to our place, of the heart:
A place to grow, and know
A place to thrive, and sow
A place to share, and care
A place to become ... as one
I know, somehow we'll find, our way
To a place in the sun, of living light ... so fine
A place for you, and a place for I
A place to be free, play and run ... beyond space and time
a place of peace, beauty and love sublime
Someday, I know we'll find our way, back home,
to that place ... of our hearts. - bk

Inspired and composed on a starry night
while sitting under a tree:

Hello out there ... And beyond.
I'd like to get to know you ... and be friends.
Hello ... Hello ?
I know you're out there ... So send a beam, for me,
... So we can
... Be

( Preceded by soothing cooing )

Now rest in peace,
and travel far,
to who you are,
beyond the stars,
to light so fine,
and love divine,
beauty of mind,
and a heart so kind.

You're on your way ...

back Home ...

* Note: You know in my later years I came
to realize all I wanted to do musically was compose song and
lyrics that were both beautiful and inspiring - To go about giving free
concerts promoting progressive free thinking honoring all life.
