I Wanna Go Home - Just Not To My Own

The weight of losing you is just too hard
I can't stand to be in this house
Or even in our car
The emptiness weighs down my mind
I cant turn back the hands of time
The reality of it all
I see upon your stone

And I wanna go home
Just not to my own
This burden of heartache
Makes me see that I'm not strong 

I want to talk to you
But I can't pick up the phone
I wanna go home
But not to my own

You left behind so many 
Yet we're the ones who grieve
Maybe it is all of us
Who acted selfishly

We hated losing you
Even begged the good Lord please
Now we're left with the memories
And we'll follow in your lead

I wanna go home
Just not to my own
This burden of heartache
Makes me see that I'm not strong

I want to talk to you
But I can't pick up the phone
I want to go home
But not to my own

I guess that you'll be waiting
Near my mansion in the sky
On the day I'm finally called home
And walk toward the light

I guess Heavens only waiting
Till my calling here is done
Until I see you again
May you walk with the Son

I wanna go home
Just not to my own
This burden of heartache
Makes me see that I'm not strong

When I finally talk to you
And no longer feel alone
I'll realize I'm home
And no longer on my own

I just want to go home....
