Almost Home Lyrics - Mary Chapin Carpenter

(Mary Chapin Carpenter/Beth Nielson Chapman/Annie Roboff) 

I saw my life this morning 

Lying at the bottom of a drawer 

All this stuff I'm saving 

God knows what this junk is for 

And whatever I believed in 

This is all I have to show 

What the hell were all reasons 

For holding on for such dear life 

Here's where I let go 

I'm not running 

I'm not hiding 

I'm not reaching 

I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 

Gonna pull my soul in 

And I'm almost home

I saw you this morning 

You were staring back at me 

From an ancient photograph 

Stuck between some letters and some keys 

I was lost just for a moment 

In the ache of old goodbyes 

Sometimes all that we can know is 

There's no such thing as no regrets 

But baby it's all right 

I'm not running 

I'm not hiding 

I'm not reaching 

I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 

Gonna pull my soul in 

And I'm almost home 

Photos 

But there's no such thing as no regrets 

And baby it's alright 

I'm not running 

I'm not hiding 

I'm not reaching 

I'm just resting in the arms of the great wide open 

Gonna pull my soul in 

And I'm almost home
