An August summer breeze blows outside
As the wayfaring daughter arrives
You left us for so long, but you're here now
We can't hide the tears in our eyes
I know you suffered long and you needed
Some time just to be on your own
The days have come and gone and it's clear now
There really ain't no place like home
And you fly like a dove
To join your true love
And like the sunrise
You light up our lives
You were just a child when you found that
Your voice was the window to dreams
Whenever you would sing all fell silent
And time would stand still so it seems
And you fly like a dove
To join your true love
And like the sunrise
You light up our lives
You light up our lives
