Samples Taking Us Home Lyrics

when I saw the churches
the stained glass was gone
and the boxes were empty
I wondered how long
when I saw the blind man
who can't see the sun
he talked of his army
and some war they won
he prayed for the future
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/s/samples-lyrics/taking-us-home-lyrics.html -]
and he prayed for the past
and he said his heart still bleeds
for the wife he once had
when I told the blind man
we're all here alone
he said the strong wind
was taking us home
