A Long Way from Home sequel

When I reached the ending
when my journey was through
everything was worth it
for what I found was you.
A brilliant ray of sunshine
a miracle so dear.
I collapsed into your arms
and cried many a tear.
For there you were—

though I can’t explain
what made it all the while—

but when you greeted me
all I could do was smile.
And as the sun was setting
We departed arm and arm
With you, everything was magical
We were quite safe from harm.
And so we traveled ‘round the world
through Brazil, China, and Rome.
Together we made life an adventure
a long, long way from home.
