Letra de My Father's House
Last night, I dreamt that I was a child Out where the pines grow wild and tall Was tryin' to make it home through the forest Before the darkness fallsI heard the wind rustlin' through the trees And ghostly voices rose from the fields I ran with my heart poundin' down that broken path With the devil snappin' at my heelsI broke through the trees, and there in the night My father's house stood there shinin' hard and bright The branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms But I ran 'til I fell shakin' in my father's armsI awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart Will never again, sir, tear us from each other's arms I got dressed and to that house I did ride From out on the road I could see its winding shining lightsI walked up the stairs and I stood on the porch A woman I didn't recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door I told her my story and for who I'd come for She said, "I'm sorry, son, but no one by that name lives here anymore"My father's house shines hard and bright It stands like a beacon, calling me in the night Calling and calling, so cold and alone Shining 'cross this dark highway where our sins lie unatoned
