Gunslinger
Avenged Sevenfold Yeah, you've been alone I've been gone for far too long But with all that we've been through After all this time, I'm coming home to you
Never let it show
The pain I've grown to know 'Cause with all these things we do It don't matter when, I'm coming home to you
I reach towards the sky, I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now I won't question why so many have died My prayers have made it through, yeah 'Cause with all these things we do It don't matter when, I'm coming home to you
Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, oh
Letters keep me warm
Helped me through the storm But with all that we've been through After all this time, I'm coming home to you
I reach towards the sky, I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now I won't question why so many have died My prayers have made it through, yeah 'Cause with all these things we do It don't matter when, I'm coming home to you
I've always been true
I've waited so long just to come hold you I'm making it through, it's been far too long We've proven our love over time's so strong In all that we do The stars in the night, they lend me their light To bring me closer to heaven with you (Bring me closer)
But with all that we've been through
After all this time, I'm coming home to you
I reach towards the sky, I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now I won't question why so many have died My prayers have made it through, yeah 'Cause with all these things we do It don't matter when, I'm coming home to you
And with all that we've been through
After all this time, I'm coming home to you Never feared for anything Never shamed, but never free A life that healed the broken heart with all that it could Lived a life so endlessly Saw beyond what others see I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could
Will you stay?
Will you stay away forever?
How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned Place and time always on my mind I have so much to say, but you're so far away
Plans of what our futures hold
Foolish lies of growing old It seems we're so invincible, the truth is so cold A final song, a last request A perfect chapter laid to rest Now and then I try to find a place in my mind
Where you can stay
You can stay awake forever
How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned Place and time always on my mind I have so much to say, but you're so far away
Sleep tight, I'm not afraid
The ones that we love are here with me Lay away a place for me 'Cause as soon as I'm done, I'll be on my way To live eternally
How do I live without the ones I love?
Time still turns the pages of the book it's burned Place and time always on my mind And the light you left remains, but it's so hard to stay When I have so much to say and you're so far away
I love you, you were ready
The pain is strong and urges rise But I'll see you when He lets me Your pain is gone, your hands untied
So far away (so far away)
And I need you to know So far away (so far away) And I need you to, need you to know
