Song Description

Story about a young boy's journey to pursuing a dream. Sometimes we have to lose it all to realize that when we get that "thing" back, we can never let it go.

Lyrics

BRING HIM BACK HOME
Justis Kao

He was nine years old, with talent overflowing
And trophies, they blanketed his walls.
He would lie there, with eyes shut, he'd smile
dreaming of having it all
But all that was once so familiar, has now just become but a blur

Some people travel the whole world just searching for what they already possess.
It's not money or places, but life as it takes you to where you're just left on your own.

BRING HIM BACK HOME TO WHERE IT ALL STARTED
WHERE LIFE IS STILL SIMPLE AND DREAMS ARE THE MARK OF A CHILD WITHIN
TEACH HIM TO DREAM AGAIN
AND HELP HIM TO SEE WHAT HE CANNOT REASON
GIVE HIM THAT CHILDLIKE FAITH TO BELIEVE IN
REMIND HIM OF WHAT HE'D LOST LONG AGO
BRING HIM BACK HOME
BRING HIM BACK HOME

He walks streets of old, the trees and houses haven't changed
But he no longer knows anybody's names
He's picking up the story once left behind, fallen in time
But all that was oh so familiar, has now just become but a blur

Some people travel the whole world just searching
Some live each day like their last
We never remember the love that we treasured until we've been left on our own.

BRING HIM BACK HOME
BRING HIM BACK HOME
AND HELP HIM TO SEE WHAT HE COULD NOT REASON
GIVE HIM THAT CHILDLIKE FAITH TO BELIEVE IN
REMIND HIM OF WHAT HE'D LOST LONG AGO
BRING HIM BACK HOME

Bring him back home to where he's supposed to be
Every part that he'd lost of this legacy
is reclaimed when he looks back through history
so let him know, wherever he goes

THAT HE CAN COME HOME TO WHERE IT ALL STARTED
WHERE LIFE IS STILL SIMPLE AND DREAMS ARE A MARK OF THE CHILD WITHIN
CUZ THAT'S WHERE HE'LL DREAM AGAIN
AND THEN HE WILL SEE WHAT HE COULD NOT REASON
HE'LL FIND THAT CHILDLIKE FAITH TO BELIEVE IN
REMIND HIM OF WHAT HE'D LOST LONG AGO
WHEN HE COMES HOME
SO BRING HIM BACK HOME
BRING HIM BACK HOME
