Drainpipe

Phil Joel

I watched you climbing
From the window of your house
Down the drainpipe to the lawn
The rain was falling hard
Upon your face, you turned
You were crying but I couldn't tell

Safety was no longer
Within the confines of your walls
Maybe it would be better to run away

Prodigal,
Where do you go
When you go prodigal?
Come home

I see you keep moving
But the concrete's setting
Hard around your heart
We both smile and say "hey"
So near and yet so far away
We talk for a while
And while we talk
You drift away standing there
You were crying but I couldn't tell

Prodigal,
Where do you go
When you go prodigal?
Come home
Come home now
