Jack Kennedy: Music
Prodigal Son
(Jack Kennedy)
Prodigal Son
There is nothing in this world I hold against you,
nothing you can do to close my heart
in the middle of night my door is open
I will never keep you apart,
I will never keep you apart.
No matter what, I will always forgive you,
no matter what on earth you think you have done,
I will not turn away when you are calling,
after all, you are always my son,
after all, you are always my son.
After all the dreams of dying in the desert,
and wandering without a guiding star,
you can come back home and drop your burden,
and remember who you really are.
I will never bar my door and lock you out,
never will I punish you with shame,
you are welcome here without a doubt,
can you hear me calling your name?
can you hear me calling your name?
After all the dreams of dying in the desert,
and wandering without a guiding star,
you can come back home and drop your burden,
and remember who you really are.
There is nothing in this world I hold against you,
nothing you can do to close my heart
in the middle of night my door is open
I will never keep you apart,
I will never keep you apart.
Jack Kennedy, September 19, 2005
