lyrics

it’s been
ten years since i’ve left and you’ve been
lying awake at night
lying awake at night

you can’t sleep
till staring at the morning light
praying that i’d survive
praying that i’d survive

it’s been
ten years since you’ve heard of me
my gravestone’s in the ground
my gravestone’s in the ground

they always say you’ll
save yourself for judgement day
your husband to be found
your husband to be found

if love is blind then hope will see me through
cause i’m coming home
you’ll know me in stranger’s clothes

in stranger’s clothes

it’s been ten years since i’ve left you for
a war i couldn’t win
a war no one could win

through the sirens
i’ve fought across the ancient world
lived tales no one should tell
tales no one should tell

it’s been
ten years since i’ve been at home
there’re suitors at the door
suitors at the door

but in triumph
i watch you as you run to see
me shipwreck on the shore
shipwrecked on the shore

if love is blind
then hope will see me through
cause i’m coming home

you’ll know me in stranger’s clothes

in stranger’s clothes

i will fight
i will fight
for your hand in love again
(oh)
