Tenderly Calling Lyrics

    This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the different directions album, and has also been released on the john denver collection - sunshine on my shoulder album.


    Home, come on home
    Ye who are weary come home
    Softly and tenderly calling
    Home, come on home

    Sometimes when i'm feeling lonesome
    And no one on earth seems to care
    I'm all by myself in the darkness
    With no one and nothing to share

    Just when it feels like it's hopeless
    And i'll never make it alone
    I hear the voices of angels
    Tenderly calling me home

    Home, come on home
    Ye who are weary come home
    Softly and tenderly calling
    Home, come on home

    I try to keep it together
    I never let on that i'm scared
    Still sometimes i fall to pieces
    Scattered and lost everywhere

    Just when it feels like there's no one
    To mend all my broken down dreams
    I hear a voice deep inside me
    Tenderly calling to me

    Home, come on home
    Ye who are weary come home
    Softly and tenderly calling
    Home, come on home

    So don't be afraid of the darkness
    And don't run away from the storm
    Stand up and face your reflection
    The feelings you try to ignore

    After the tempest is over
    You've let yourself come on through
    You'll hear a voice in the silence
    Tenderly calling to you

    Home, come on home
    Ye who are weary come home
    Softly and tenderly calling
    Home, come on home
