Mariah Carey

[Intro]
Oh, ooh
Oh

[Verse 1]
I've seen the light in the sky
In disguise, like fireflies
Burning bright, just to vanish in the dark
I've held hope in my two hands
That there would be another chance
To find the kingdom
I'm believing in my heart

[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause underneath the good
Is something greater than you know

[Chorus]
When you're almost there and you're almost home
Just open up your eyes and go
When you're almost there, almost home
Know you're not alone, you're almost home
Home

[Verse 2]
When you run, run so far
You've forgotten who you are
Where you're from, it's like some other universe
You count your steps like they're regrets
You catch one breath, then lose the rest
Wrong is right, right is left
And there's nowhere left to turn

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So don't believe in everything
You think, you think you know

[Chorus]
When you're almost there and you're almost home
Just open up your eyes and go
When you're almost there, almost home
Know you're not alone, you're almost home
Home

[Bridge]
When you let your
Heart be the compass
You won't get lost
Not if you trust it
When you hear the
Sound of the trumpet
Louder than ever before

[Chorus]
When you're almost there, almost home
Just open up your eyes and go
'Cause you're almost there, almost home
Know you're not alone, you're almost home

[Chorus]
When you're almost there, almost home
Just open up your eyes and go
'Cause you're almost there, you're almost home
Know you're not alone, you're almost home
Home

[Outro]
Ooh, home

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
