I can feel the springtime when the trees are all still bare
In the angle of the sunshine and the early morning air
Just below the surface, so I guess it isn't really there
I can reach it in the memory of my heart
And since you're gone, I guess that's where you are
There is peace beyond the mystery
To which our eyes can not yet see
Somehow I don't feel so all alone
Ever since, you're almost here, I'm almost home
In the silent thanks I prayed when I first heard that you had passed
To the places that my mind went when I drove all night too fast
And the way some days I forget that you're not coming back
I know when you first heard the angels sing
It must have felt like that first perfect day of spring
There is peace beyond the mystery
Somehow I don't feel so all along
You're almost here, I'm almost home
Ever since, you're almost here, I'm almost home
