karaoke
Lost in cheap delirium
Searching the neon lights
I move carefully
Sink in the city aquarium
Sing in the key of night
As they're watching me
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Wrapped in silent elegance
Beautifully broken down
As illusions burst
Too late to learn from experience
Too late to wonder how
To finish first
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
Won't you take me home
Won't you take me home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Won't you take me home
so glad to be back home
be back home
i cant stay to long
be back home
so glad to be back home
be back home
the winter hit so hard
hit so hard
the winter hit so hard
every little part
so glad to be back home
be back home
Some people live in a house on the hill
And wish they were some place else
There's nobody there
When the evening is still
Secrets with no one to tell
Some I have known have a ship where they sleep with sounds of rocks on the coast
They sail over oceans five fathoms deep
But can't find what they want the most
Even now when I'm alone
I've always known with you
I am home
Some live in towns
Cardboard shack on concrete
All bluster and bustling life
They search for the color they can never quite see
Cause it's all white on white
Even now when I'm alone
I've always known with you
I am home
[repeat]
For me it's a glance and the smile on your face the touch of your hands,
And an honest embrace
For where I lay it's you I keep,
This changing world I fall asleep
With you all I know is I'm coming home,
Coming home
I'll be coming home
Just to be alone
Cause I know you're not there
And I know that you don't care
I can hardly wait to leave this place
No matter how hard I try
You're never satisfied
This is not a home
I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear
Even when you're here
This is not my home
I think I'm better off alone
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a home
By the time you come home
I'm already stoned
You turn off the TV
And you scream at me
I can hardly wait
Till you get off my case
No matter how hard I try
You're never satisfied
This is not a home
I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear
Even when you're here
This is not my home
I think I'm better off alone
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a home
I'm better off alone
No matter how hard I try
You're never satisfied
This is not a home
I think I'm better off alone
You always disappear
Even when you're here
This is not my home
I think I'm better off alone
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a
Home home this house is not a home
the broken glass that fades
the past is a parade of countless days
painting patterns in the sand
my motorcycle brain
remains to be explained
it's like a summer rain
pictures passing through a field
blowing into the horizon
watching the shadows on the wall
tell me can you see my thoughts?
watching the shadows on the wall
have you seen it all before?i need a friendly hand
someone who'll understand me by the river bed
when there's nothing to be said anyways
it's all inside your head you know it.
watching the shadows on the wall
tell me can you see my thoughts?
watching these shadows on the wall
have you seen it all before?
Side of the road, I stopped and
Picked up the pieces of your car
You were just standing, speechless
Knowing you'd never travel far
That's what you do when someone's given up on you
And that's when I knew that I was giving up and giving in
That's when I knew where I was
That's when I knew that I was home
Stuck in the middle of the road
For better or worse, we compromise
You may have won my hand, dear
But it was the consolation prize
That's when I knew that I was running out on you
That's what you do when time is running out and running down
That's when I knew where I was
That's when I knew that I was home
Where does the heart reside
If not where I lay my head?
I could run but I'm petrified
And choose this instead
Again and again
End of the road I'm running
And look back to survey where I'd been
Someday I'll write and ask you
If you could imagine what I'd seen
How could you think that I could turn my back on you?
How did you think this would be turning out? And turning 'round
What could I do but you?
What could I do to call this home?
That's when I knew where I was
That's when I knew that I was home
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Now what does this mean
It means we get the best scenes
When politics talk, the ends of power meet
Nice to be wanted, safe and protected
The ends of power when politics talk
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Home sweet home, home, home
Now
Let's talk politics
Every dog has it's day
For me (for me)
I don't believe (I don't believe in anything)
Better days ahead (one more war)
Will never be (I do believe no more)
I don't believe in (no long goodbye)
Anything (nuclear day)
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Better days will never be
Spare no man, match bomb for bomb
War, all is fair in war
When the ground is soft with hot blood
Spare no man
Better days will never be (match bomb for bomb)
A scorched Earth (flatten the Earth, this home sweet home)
No charity (burn evreything, from lust to dust)
No weak pity (no charity, no weak pity)
From lust to dust (all is fair in war)
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
Home sweet home
What happened yesterday
When your heart gave way?
No air inside, no eyes to see your way
Life on earth is gone
Today you're holding on to the hand of God
Finally you're truly alive now
You've made it home
Did you fall upon your knees?
Tell me could you speak of anything
When he took your hand
When he wiped your tears away?
Tell me, did he speak?
One day we will see you, we will hear you (voice of life)
One day, we will all come home
And we will finally be alive
Finally you've made it home
I force myself through another day
Can't explain the way today just fell apart like everything
Right in my face
And I try to be the one
I can't accept this all because of you
I've had to walk away
From everything
I'm afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when I'm gone
I'm afraid to come back home
Another sleepless night again
Hotel rooms my only friend
And friends like that just don't add up
To anything
And I try so hard to be everything
That I should never take away from you again
'Cause I heard ya say
I'm afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when I'm gone
I'm afraid to come back home
I cannot forget
I live with regret
I cannot forget
I live with...
I'll live through this
I can't see through this
I can't do this anymore
I'm afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when I'm gone
I'm afraid to come back home
Afraid you'll leave me when I'm gone
I just wish I was back home
Home
It's a long way from Miami to LA
It's a longer way from yesterday
To where I am today
It's a long way from my thoughts
To what I'll say
It's a long, long way from paradise
To where I am today
All that's in my head
Is in Your hands
It's a long way from
The moon up to the sun
It's a longer ahead of me
The road that I've begun
Stop to think of all the
Time I've lost
Start to think of all the
Bridges that I've burned
That must be crossed
Over, over, over
Take me over
I've been poison
I've been rain
I've been fooled again
I've seen ashes
Shine like chrome
Someday I'll see home
Home, home
I can see the stars
From way down here
But I can't fall asleep
Behind the wheel
It's a long way from the
Shadows in my cave
Up to Your reality to
Watch the sunlight taking over
Over, over, over
Take me over
I've been poison
I've been rain
I've been fooled again
I've seen ashes
Shine like chrome
Someday I'll see home
Home, home
Floating away
fading away again
fall from your arms find my feet again
you're coming down
you're coming round again
facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Child walks down to the river's edge
And looks out as far as she can see
And draws each breath as if it were the last
And wipes away the tears across her sleeve
She can see where the river crawls to the sea
Like a baby into mother's care
Somehow the longing is so far away
The innocence so wasted and aware
And look at the child with the dream in her eyes
Holding it deep inside her
Thinking about Home... Home...
So much anger so deeply ingrained
Seemed a burden that was hers alone
She didn't think that there was anything wrong
With wanting a life that she could call her own
How could I explain? You would not want to hear
You wouldn't listen if I talked anyway
For you were too weighed down by your own fears
And look at the child with the dream in her eyes
Holding it deep inside her
Home... home... home... home...
we can't always be together
you gotta pick it up, you gotta pick it up again
things can't always hang together
cos nobody knows, so let's give it a go
home
you'll be running all the way
back home
but nothing's gonna save
your soul
you'll be running all the way
back home
home
we can't always make things better
when it comes around
you gotta nail it down
this ain't gonna be forever
cos nobody knows
so let's give it a go
home
you'll be running all the way
back home
but nothing's gonna save
your soul
you'll be running all the way
back home
home
if there was some way to manage this space
between us
(some way to manage this space between us)
(i find it hard to reach) home
you'll be running all the way
back home
but nothing's gonna save
your soul
till you've finally found your peace
on your own
you'll be running all the way
because life is short
and getting shorter
and we don't do things that we oughta
life is short and
getting shorter
you in.....
and so......
Hey have you picked up anymore
Marbles off the floor
The streets you once lived on
Are now gone
Time will never stop
And that stilts we used to walk on
Are now too weak
For you and me to walk on now
Looking out among the clouds
Right through the rain
Massive mountain tops in the front of me
I want to go home
Where I know it is safe
And everybody's watching out for me
Home that's where I live
Spend most of my time
Here there's too much unrest
Nothing goes as planned
So let's leave and go on home
Before it gets too late
Dancing to the music all night long
Wreckage - My mind
Insecure - All the time
ONCE LOVED - NOW PARALYZED
I ONCE THOUGHT - I'LL NEVER DIE
Frustrated - OUR SIMPLE LIFE
No one listens - EVERYONE LIES
Who said "HOME IS WHERE YOU HIDE"
Strong as shit and now you see
I'm home - leave it to me
(leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home - leave it to me
(leave it to me)
From left to right...
[repeat]
I tried - my father said,
I'm scared - she always said
They grab and pull until I tear
MEANING - Too deep to swim
When's a good time for the end
Who said I was YOUR FRIEND
I'm home - leave it to me
(leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home - leave it to me
(leave it to me)
From left to right...
[repeat]
Suffocated - our simple life
No one listens - everyone dies
Never a chance - how could you see
I'm home - leave it to me (leave it to me)
I'm home - leave it to me (leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home - leave it to me (leave it to me)
I'm home - leave it to me (what the fuck did you say)
From left to right...
[repeat]
I woke up this morning
Now I understand
What it means to give your life
To just one man
Afraid of feeling nothing
No bees or butterflies
My head is full of voices
And my house is full of lies
Chorus:
This is home, home
And this is home, home
This is home
I found you standing there
When I was seventeen
Now I'm thirty-two
And I can't remember what I'd seen in you
I made a promise
Said it everyday
Now I'm reading romance novels
And I'm dreaming of yesterday
Chorus
I'd like to see the Riviera
And slowdance underneath the stars
I'd like to watch the sun come up
In a stranger's arms
Chorus
I'm going crazy
A little every day
And everything I wanted
Is now driving me away
I woke this morning
To the sound of breaking hearts
Mine is full of questions
And it's tearing yours apart...
I gave my life to you and i have worked so hard at it too
Would i do anything other than to raise you to be
The finest men?
After all this years of ploughing through the weeds
I have turned wise and grey
With every fiber in me
I have lived to see you grow to be
The finest men
I just followed my trail and I found my way back home
In this light of all I wanted to display for you
I will never leave you alone
In the corners of this universal sky
Then completion often day passes me by
As long as the ways of the light
Will reach your bearing heart
I will find
The finest men
I came and I saw
I will understand this freedom
And remind you of me
Will you pass me on
My pride
I found in life my way home
God gave me travelling shoes, God gave me the wanderer's eye,
God gave me a few gold coins to help me to the other side.
Looked around and said: be careful how small things grow,
God gave me travelling shoes and I knew that it was time to go.
Sent in the ship at night to take me to the hidden port.
Found me the key at last to open up the prison door.
Brought down the blackbird's wings, gifted me with beggar's eyes.
Sent in the jackals to tell me I should say bye, bye, bye.
I'm home, home,
Home, home, home
And I'm home, home,
home, home, home
But I'm miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Where can I hide?
God gave me one last chance, gave me one last reprieve.
Jah gave me hunger, gave me the air to breathe.
Gave me one suitcase, gave me one last goodbye
Gave me travelling shoes, without them I would surely die, die, die
Home, home
Home, home, home (2x)
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Where can i go?
Where can I hide?
You speak, when you are spoken to
And buy what you've been sold
You want, but you can't help yourself
Maybe it's time to go home
You smile, with a convincing grin
And laugh, until you frown
You play the game, you know you can't win
If you want some shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm
You can always go home
I think it's time to go home
You cry, but you can't show your tears
You lie, until you feel weak
You're scared, but you can't hide your fears
If you want some shelter from the rain
Somewhere you can ease the pain
You can always go home
I think it's time to go home
No questions asked
No judgements passed
And now, where have you been?
Just nice to see you
And welcome back
Oh yes, you're finally home
Laugh when you want to laugh
Cry when you want to cry
Smile when you want to smile
Lie if you need to lie
You smile with a convincing grin
And laugh until you frown
You play the game you know you can't win
When you need shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm, oh yea
You can always go home
It's time to go home
No questions asked
No judgements passed
Now where have you been
It's nice to see you
Welcome back!
Oh yes, you're finally home
If you want shelter from the storm
Somewhere we feel safe and warm
Then you know, I know, you know
We can always go home
Heal down to me
I've rested with you
I've spend always time
Time with my brothers
Love for my sister
Now I'm fine
And I wanna come home
These been some tears
Many fears about the way
The way that you love
The pain when you're bad
It makes me sad
Totally mad
Now I need to come back home
How beautiful
So wonderful
A beautiful love
Friends 'til the end
Now I'm home
Into Your courts I run with praises
Flowing from my heart
Every day I wake I sing Your song
It's the anthem of my life
I want to spend my days
In Your presence, Lord
Bowed before Your throne
In the house of God
Is where I find my peace
It's where I find my
Home is heaven
One day Lord, I will live
In Your courts, You'll find me
In worship at Your feet
Hide me now
In the shadow of Your wings
Where I will be
Where I will be
Your love is all I need
So desperately I have sought Your face
I know You hear my every cry
And petition that I make
Jesus, oh You are my treasure
Jesus, oh You are my treasure
home i don't know where you could be
look for you in mountains of oceans across seas
though we live under the same moon
catch you in the glimmer of a spoon
could you be
where love raised his head
where my youth was gallantly led
where the sun took a holiday
fell in love, decided to stay
i'm so tired
and down, down, down, down, down
could you be where my best friend plays
where the nights bleed longer then the days
where i lost my only child
where there are no trees but wolves run wild
maybe somewhere i have never been
Tangiers or the bank of Berlin
strangers can veil a friendly eye
rather be with you than a lie
i am so tired and down......
could you be where my angel sleeps
when he sings willows begin to weep
when i think of all i have done
home you know you're the one
home is where the heart is
Waiting for my time when somebody walks to me
Somebody talks to me and tells me I'm okay
Soon to be this time for my train to come by
Waiting for my window, where my opportunity lies
I don't want to go home without You cause home is not the same
Have you ever been awake all night
And not a thing could take it all away
I'm beginning to admit to it
when someone else's loss isn't for me
For everyone in their own world
Who's stopping you, so find away
I wanna get where we're going
Just count out to yourself, make sure there's no one else
I'll be the last one to know
Say, I'm gonna find my own way back to earth
Say I can't forget what I had
There's something that I wanted to know
Remember I won't let it go
Something like insanity, that's me
I give it anyway that is my life
Well I know I can't predict the time
Don't take me with you when you can't decide
So many of my friends have been the ones
That never let me down again
Cause I know when I'm awake in sleep
But when I sleep it's to awaken me
Jump in the car I gotta feeling, pretty soon things might get heated,
We're not safe here anymore,
There's a place close, we can hide out,
Where the satellites won't find us
Just get in and close the door
Baby our love is threatened, for it to survive, just listen
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna learn to breathe again,
I don't wanna start another life,
You're were the closest thing to heaven I've ever known
In a world once, you were like a door
Baby you're my only hope
If tomorrow we don't wake up, with this halo right above us
It'd be the sadest day of all
We got love that's epic, maybe that's why they get jealous
Of the most famous love of all
What we got here is precious, so let's keep on fighting, yeah
[Chorus 2x]
instrumental
There is a road
It's not to far from here
That's where i first met love
It's been following me for years
And she was smiling
And she was laughing
There is a place
It's not to far from here
That's where we lost our faith
That's where we lost our innocence
And she was smiling
And she was laughing
And we thought we knew it all
And we were flying so high that we could not fall
But i'll never forget the news that day
The look on her face
Was something that i won't soon forget
The feeling in my soul scared me half to death
And she was crying
And she was crying
And we thought we knew it all
And we were flying so high that we could not fall
But i'll never forget the news that day
And baby is beautiful
Made from the deepest love
Baby is beautiful
It's time to take her home
There is a place down on old city road
That is where we live
That's the place we call home
And we are smiling
And we are laughing
And we were sailing upon the water
We were fighting the waves and the foam
And we were run aground
And we were sailing in shallow water
It was us or the precious cargo
And so we let it go
When will we be home?
Sometimes it seems like there's nothing better
We keep falling into the unknown
Will we ever learn?
And we were waiting for something bigger
Feel it there it calls us on
But do we wanna go?
No more disconnection
Show me revelation
And shine the light onto the road
Though I know salvation
There is separation
And my heart it cries for home
You say that home is a place of shelter
But I wanna home that time or weather
Could never break it down
Good to be back home... in the pubs with the people that you love
And a crawl around the clubs getting high
GTBBH... all alone when you're running up the phone bill
Trying to raise the cents for the rent
GTBBH... with your kid and you ask him what he did
Well, he burned the house down to the ground
GTBBH... with the wife and to have some kind of life
And to wake up and break up again
Good to be back home... (x2)
GTBBH... on a love tip, gotta keep a grip
When the ship's going down, you can flip
GTBBH... off the junk food, seen as a clean dude
And instill a clean bill of health
GTBBH... hear the sounds of the city all around
And the music, the new licks you found
GTBBH... at the Lane for a relegation game
As the boys get caned once again
Good to be back home... (x4)
I'm not homeless, I'm just restless
I get itchy feet and reckless
I've been travelling so long, cracking
I don't really know what is happening
Here is there is anywhere and home is my ass on a chair
Then I wish I was gone and then I wish I was home
Then I wish I was gone (AWOL) then I wish I was home (AWOL)
AWOL, AWOL
Then I wish I was gone (AWOL) then I wish I was home (AWOL)
Hello home...
Front porch light would be turned on
And I was always gone too long
Curfew was at 10pm
And I'd sneak in trying not to wake him when I got
Home
Daddy always said "Son, you're half a bubble off'a plumb
Head-strong and stubborn", and maybe I was
Yeah, I couldn't wait to leave
Last place I in the world I wanted to be was
Home
Now I'm flying down that old dirt road
But it seems these wheels are spinning slow
I'd never left that way if I'd have only known
He's gone, so here I am
Home
I sat in my car and cried
Wished to God he was still alive
Inside, mama wiped my tears
She said, He would have been so happy that you're here at Home
Then I thought about my life
And about my kids and about my wife
And about how time just flies no matter what you do
And every soccer game I have missed
And every time I fight when I could forgive
And how I can't let it come to this
When I get home
Now I'm flying down that old dirt road
But it seems these wheels are spinning slow
And it's taken me a while but now I finally know
Everything that matters most is at
Home
Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm
Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
“I'm fine baby, how are you?”
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that
Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home
And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
But this was not your dream
But you always believed in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home
And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be allright
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
Fight for felicity for me.
You know i cannot do it myself.
Stick your fingers in my mouth.
Pull my lips back and watch me smile.
Catch me on my troubled portion.
Maybe there is something there for you.
Look below her nylon stockings,
snapped the double notch and left untied.
Some king chooser will wind up with my number.
I'll go to sleep and
wait for my number to come.
Deep pockets may be deeper
and always had a nickel to spare.
Now the blood blister's,
the blister's black
as she washes her hands across her chest.
But if you're willing to call my machine,
flip the coins and watch me light up
hope the time is right for it
when its done
turn your back
King chooser has come for my number.
I'll just roll over on my back
and wait for my number to come.
[Music: D.Gildenlow]
'The white man, he comes and goes. He can go. ...But that's our homeland for
thousands of years. That's our home, and we will never leave. No matter how
contaminated it gets. We live there! We have always lived there and we will
always live there.'
This is our home - our roots go deep
Where our ancestors sleep
This is the land we've nursed for countless aeons
But never ours to keep
My tribe is crying - our land is dying
But we can't leave - this is our home
We can't let our past go...
We're left with your legacy
Wide awake, deep at our roots
While you move on exploiting
We'll sing lullabies for half a million years
When my son asks why, what will I reply?
But we can't leave - this is our home
We can't let our past go...
[Hallgren]
[Hermansson]
[D. Gildenlow]
But we can't leave - this is our home!
If you like concrete alone
Then don't make your high lives depend
On that past that you let go...
[III: Karachay]
Home
The child in my eyes
Stares sometimes
When I was so much younger
Home
A place in the sun
Where memories run
I close my eyes and there I am
Home
The love remains
Through all the years
Through all the change
The sweetest dreams
I've ever known
Are those of you
And those of home
Time
The turn on a page
The love someone needs
When we were there together
Steal where ever I go
Deep in my soul
A part of me is always there
Home
The love remains
Through all the years
Through all the change
The sweetest dreams
I've ever known
Are those of you
And those of home
When you smile
And hold me in your arms
Sometimes for the moment
I'm that child again
Home
The love remains
Through all the years
Through all the change
The sweetest dreams
I've ever known
Are those of you
And those of home
Are those of you
And those of home
I'm a soldier on the field
Fighting for you, fighting for me
You can see it on our faces
Like the bullets leave traces
You can feel it for real
You can't imagine the pain of my baby so far away
So far from my home...
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
I'm a soldier on the field
Waiting to die, praying to live
To survive one more day
But my hope begins to fray
It's my flesh against the steel
You'll never know what I've known
You'll never see what I've seen
I hope we make it home...
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, when they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
So far from home
She cries, politics aside
What I'd give to have him here tonight
When they comin' home?
When they leavin' that place?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh shed some grace!
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, children playing in the sun?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh, ?
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming' home?
Oh, children playing in the sun?
To see their lovers face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they comin' home?
Oh, ?
When they coming' home?
These nights I spend alone
Are hard to carry on
I can't do this on my own
and it hurts me when I'm gone
Cause I got everything
That a good man will ever need
Oh
Oh I'm praying every day
Lord take this pain away
Please help me to be strong
Help me find my way back home
Cause I have everything
Waitin there for me
I'm lost, I'm lonely
and there's only one way home
I hear you calling
and You're calling me back home
I'm comin home
All I want is for my heart to be filled with love and not with misery
If home is where they say your heart will be
Then I never want to leave
I'm lost, I'm lonely
And there's only one way home
I've been a traveler most of my life never took a home never took a wife
Ran away young and decided to roam
I wanna see my mama and my daddy back home
Home where the river runs cold the water tastes good the winters ain't cold
Home where trees grow tall the homefires burn and the whippoorwills call
[ ac.guitar ]
I remember stories that my pappa used to tell
My eyes get big and my chest begin to swell
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me
Home where the river runs cold...
[ ac.guitar ]
Well mama dear mama do you still love your boy
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Mom sent a letter got it not long ago it said come home I'm a missin' you so
Home where the river runs cold...
Jim: Oh, God!
Californian Weirdo: Sole has no eyes.
Could be Jerusalem, or could be Cairo
Could be Berlin, or could be Prague
Could be Moscow, could be New York
Could be Llanelli, and could be Warrington
Could be Warsaw, and it could be Moose Jaw
Could be Rome
Everybody got somewhere they call home
When they overrun the defences
A minor invasion put down to expenses
Will you go down to the airport lounge
Will you accept your second class status
A nation of waitresses and waiters
Will you mix there martinis
Will you stand still for it
Or will you take to this hills
It could be clay and it could be sand
Could be desert
Could be a tract of arable land
Could be a house, could be a corner shop
Could be a cabin by bend in the river
Could be something you old men handed down
Could be something you built in your own
Everybody got something he calls home
When the cowboys and Arabs draw down
On each other at noon
In the cool dusty air of the city boardroom
Will you stand by a passive spectator
Of the market dictators
Will you discreetly withdraw
With your ear pressed to the boardroom door
Will you hear when the lion within you roars
Will you take to the hills
Will you stand, will you stand for it
Will you hear, ohhhh! ohhh! when the lion within you roars
Could be your father and could be your mother
Could be your sister, could be your brother
Could be a foreigner, could be Turk
Could be a cyclist out looking for work, Norman
Could be a king, could be the Aga Khan
Could be a Vietnam vet with no arms and no legs
Could be a saint, could be a sinner
Could be a loser or it could be a winner
Could be a banker, could be a baker
Could be a Laker, could be Kareem Abdul Jabar
Could be a mail voice choir
Could be a super heavyweight, or it could be something lighter
Could be a cripple, could be a freak
Could be a wop, gook, geek
Could be a cop, could be a thief
Could be a family of ten living in one room on relief
Could be a our leaders in their concrete tombs
With their tinned food and their silver spoons
Could be a pilot with God on his side
Could be a kid in the middle of the bomb sight
Could be a fanatic, could be a terrorist
Could be a dentist, could be a psychiatrist
Could be a humble, could be proud
Could be a face in the crowd
Could be a soldier in the white cravat
Who turns the key in spite of the fact
That this is the end of the cat and the mouse
Who dwelt in the house
Where the laughter rang and the tears were split
The house that Jack built
Where the laughter rang and the tears were split
The house that Jack built
Bang, bang, shoot, shoot
White gloves thumb, Lord thy will be done
He was always a good boy his mother said
He'll do this duty when he's grown, yeah
Everybody got someone they call home
Angel, asleep on my shoulder
You don't know, how you're gonna grow.
Think you'll be strong and kind like your daddy
Sweet and generous, as your mamma too.
Sky above, endless and ever blue
filled with stars, shining their light on you
They're there when you're feeling scared you're all alone, they lead you home.
Home
Angel, look what you've come to.
Like the deep blue sea love is all around you.
It's there when you're standing tall
it'll be there when you fall
It's at the edge of all the dreams you dream
Sky above, endless and ever blue
filled with stars, shining their light on you
They're there when you're feeling scared, you're all alone, they lead you home.
Home
Angel, asleep on my shoulder
you don't know how you're gonna grow.
Think you'll be strong, like your daddy
sweet and generous, as your mamma too.
It's waiting for you, it's waiting for you, it's waiting for you.
Yes, I made the choice.
For Papa I will stay,
But I don’t deserve to lose my freedom in this way
You, monster
If you think that what you’ve done is right
Well, then you’re a fool
Think again
Is this home?
Is this where I should learn to be happy?
Never dreamed that a home could be dark and cold
I was told
Everyday in my childhood
Even when we grow old
“Home will be where the heart is.”
Never were words so true.
My heart’s far, far away
Home is too.
Is this home?
Is this what I must learn to believe in?
Try to find
Something good in this tragic place
Just in case
I should stay here forever
Held in this empty space
Oh, but that won’t be easy
I know the reason why
My heart’s far, far away
Home’s alike.
What I’d give to return
To the life that I knew lately
But I know that I can‘t
Solve my problems going back
Is this home?
Am I here for a day or forever?
Shut away from the world until who knows when?
Oh, but then, as my life has been altered once
It can change again
Build higher walls around me
Change every lock and key
Nothing lasts, nothing holds all of me
My heart’s far, far away
Home and free.
All I ever wanted
Was to be worthy of your love
Who could ask for such a gift?
Such a tender touch
But when the morning comes & I wake up alone
It's hard to bridge the gap between the dream and letting go
So I light a candle for your journey
A second for my own
A third is burning in my heart
You'll always know where
Home is where the heart is
Be mine forever
Home is where the heart is
Be mine forever
My cup is overflowing
My breast is swollen with your song
Nothing else is quite as real
As how desperately I long
And when the world is clear and laughter's in the air
You're the only one I want to call, but youre not there
{Chorus repeats}
West, on a plane bound west
I see her stretching out below
Land, blessed mother land
The place where I was born
Scars, she’s got her scars
Sometimes it starts to worry me
Cause lose, I don’t want to lose
Sight of who we are
From the mountains high
To the wave-crashed coast
There’s a way to find
Better days I know
It’s been a long hard ride
Got a ways to go
This is still the place
That we all call home
Free, nothing feels like free
though it sometimes means we don’t get along
Cause same, no we’re not the same
But that’s what makes us strong
From the mountains high
To the wave-crashed coast
There’s a way to find
Better days I know
It’s been a long hard ride
Got a ways to go
This is still the place
That we all call home
Brave, gotta call it brave
To chase that dream across the sea
Names, then they signed their names
For something they believed
Red, how the blood ran red
And we laid our dead in sacred ground
Just think, wonder what they think
If they could see us now
It’s been a long hard ride
Got a ways to go
This is still the place
That we all call home
It’s been a long hard ride
And I won’t lose hope
This is still the place
That we all call home
Once upon a time
Before all this mess began
I never felt alone
All now stolen
Simple and surreal
Was it a world of make-believe
You could take by the hand
And I'd follow
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made the choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Never thought I'd see the day
When my life was not my own
I will throw it all away
Without sorrow
But it wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't change the way I feel
For today is the price I pay
For tomorrow
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Somehow suddenly
It slipped away from me
I reach out, hopelessly
You're gone
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice, but
Now I'm running
So turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
I would like to say to everybody that supported me
During this project and
To the ones who didn't
Thanks
Yeah, it's been a long, long time y'all
I was sittin' in my room like, trying' to figure out
Yo, what am I gonna name the album?
You know, tryin' to get that whole like
Oh my God, and you know
Tryin' to get the conccept and all that
And I started feelin' like
Let's just keep it basic, keep it regular
Keep it true to the heart
And the answer was right there on the album already
Home
(Charlie Smalls)
Think of home
Home
When I think of home
I think of a place where there's love overflowing
I wish I was home
I wish I was back there with the things I been knowing
Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the snowflakes that fall have a meaning
Sprinklin' the scene, makes it all clean
Maybe there's a chance for me to go back there
Now that I have some direction
It would sure be nice to be back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend, let me start again
Suddenly my world has changed it's face
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing
If you're list'ning God
Please don't make it hard to know
If we should believe in the things that we see
Tell us, should we run away
Should we try and stay
Or would it be better just to let things be?
Living here, in this brand new world
Might be a fantasy
But it taught me to love
So it's real, real to me
And I've learned
That we must look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours
Like me
Like home...
I ain't never going home
'Cause I'm having a good time
I ain't never going home
'Cause my time is come
I'll wait for the winter
To lie at my door
White stretches out before me
Leads me to the hall
White circles play within my mind
Ices over and freezes life
Time will come, time will come, time will fall
Bringing the world to its feet
Bringing the world to its feet
I ain't never turning back
'Cause I've come this far
And I'm lost within my tracks
I will follow the north star
I'll wait till the springtime
Is breathing at my door
The wilderness before me
Heeds the lions roar
White circles play within my mind
Ices over and freezes life
Time will come, time will come, time will fall
Bringing the world to its feet
Bringing the world to her hands and her knees
I'll wait till the winter
Is lying at my door
Time stretches out before me
A stone's throw from the door
White circles play within my mind
Ices over and freezes life
Time will come, time will come, time will fall
Bringing the world to its feet
Bringing the world to her hands and her feet
Bringing the world to its feet
Bright are the stars that shine in somebody else's sky
Green is the grass that grows some place different
More possibilities, more than You offered me
More than I care to see from a distance
I was certain that the truth would be
In a place that kept eluding me
But every stone turned and unturned again
Would only serve to prove
That I never had to move to find You
And You will always be
The only love I'll ever know, home
And You have made for me
The only place I'll ever go, home
God, for the shameless pride
The times when I rolled my eyes
To laugh at simplicity, show me mercy
Knowing what I know now it's hard to imagine how
I could feel anything but unworthy
And the mystery of Your love for me
Is not as hidden as it seemed to be
Should have known then when You said to me
'Seek and you will find'
It was right here all the time
And You will always be
The only love I'll ever know, home
And You have made for me
The only place I'll ever go, home
I believe in the quest and the journey
I believe that the answers come in time
And where we begin is where we arrive
And You will always be
The only love I'll ever know, home
And You have made for me
The only place I'll ever go, home
YOU KEEP WATCHING THE RAIN COME DOWN (YEAH)
PRETTY PRINCESS, BROKEN CROWN (YEAH)
AND YOUR DREAMS HAVE ALL BURNED OUT
BUT DON'T YOU KNOW THAT THEY BROUGHT YOU
HERE SOMEHOW, ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW IS...
CHORUS
YOU'RE HOME, WHERE SECRETS ARE TOLD
SEE A NEW WORLD UNFOLDING
WHERE HEARTS ARE ONE, THE PAIN'S UNDONE
AND YOU'RE FINALLY BELONGING, YEAH
AND YOU NEED TO KNOW, YOU NEED TO KNOW
YOU'RE HOME
SO TAKE YOUR COAT OFF AND STAY AWHILE (YEAH)
WHAT MADE YOU CRY CAN MAKE YOU SMILE AGAIN
YOU CAN HOLD YOUR HEAD UP HIGH
'CAUSE DON'T YOU KNOW THAT YOU
OH, GIRL YOU WERE BORN TO FLY
WHEN YOU REALIZE....
CHORUS
WELCOME HOME
EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
'CAUSE YOU'RE HOME
FEEL THE SUN, YOUR DAY HAS COME
YOU'RE NOT ALONE
YOU'RE HOME
Why me Lord what have I ever done to deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord what did I ever do that was worth loving you
Or the kindness you've shown
Lord help me Jesus I've wasted it so help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I've needed you so help me Jesus my soul's in your hand
Try me Lord if you think there's a way I can try to repay all I've taken from you
Maybe Lord I can show someone else what I've been through myself
On my way back to you
Lord help me Jesus...
Jesus my soul's in your hand
Traveling at night, the headlights were bright
And we€™d been up many an hour
And all through my brain
Came the refrain
Of home and it€™s warming fire
Chorus
And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it€™s own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still
The people I've seen
They come in between
The cities of tiring life
The trains come and go,
But inside you know
The struggle will soon be a fight
Chorus
Traveling at night,
The headlights were bright.
But soon the sun came through the trees
Around the next bend
The flowers will send
The sweet scene of home in the breeze
Chorus
I've been a traveler the most of my life
I never took a home, I never took a wife
Ran away young and decided to roam
But now I'd like to see my mama and my papa back home
Home, where the rivers run cold (gold)
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call
Well I remember stories that my daddy used to tell
Yeah my eyes'd get big, his just'd swell
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me
Home, where the river runs cold (gold)
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, and the whippoorwills call
Now, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Mom you sent a letter, got it not long ago (momma sent a letter..)
And you said to come home, 'cause you were missin' me so(..it said ..'cause she's..)
Home, where the rivers run cold (gold)
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, and the whipperwills call
There is a place I was born
It is a place I've never seen
Don't even know where it is
Don't even know my name
Where is home, where is my home?
I'm searching far and wide
It's a bastard song
It is the feeling that everything's wrong
We are alive, we that have wings
We have devices can do anything, I say
Where is home, where is my home?
I hear my spirit cry
If you're out of transmission, way out on the road
If you're out of commission I can, give you the code
Darkness is coming and it's in your command
Time to be moving, time
There is a town I was born
Now there's a place I've got to call home
Where is home, where is my home?
I'm searching far and wide, oh yeah
Where is home, where is my home?
I hear my spirit cry
It's in the clear blue sky
[Shane:]
Hey...
What's your name?
Do you live around here?
Don't I know your face?
You say, 'I've been a stranger
For too long'
I didn't even notice I was gone
And I wanna come back home
[All (Shane in lead):]
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth that I need to know
There's a million places I can go
But without you it ain't home
It ain't home
[Bryan:]
Please say...
What I need to hear you say
Say, 'I'm thoughtless and foolish'
But say, 'it's not too late'
Now I don't know exactly
Where we go from here
But trying is the only way to know
And I wanna come back home
[All (Shane in lead):]
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth that I need to know
There's a million places I can go
But without you it ain't
[Bryan:]
It ain't always
Please believe me
Don't give up
Cos we're half way there
We're at the crossroads
In the middle
Between home
And between us there
All I need is
Some direction
Let me know you're here for me
Where you are
Is where I'll be
[All (Shane in lead):]
Show me the way to make a start, oh
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth that I need to know
There's a million places I can go
But without you it ain't
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth that I need to know
There's a million places I can go
But without you it ain't home
[Shane:]
It ain't home
I'm so sick and tired
of all these things
that drag me down
I've got no where to go
they say that life
is in these hands
you give everything
you give yourself away you give
and still you choke
and find yourself running for the door
come and take me
home
lead me to your door
take me where you are
lead me to your door
at least just for a while
its some kind of life
forever days
we're in the cold
unfamiliar way
so take this fear
and fade it out
it won't make me sad
cause I get sentimental lord
in other ways
and I don't want to let me down here anymore
so come and take me home
lead me to your door
take me where you are
lead me to your door
and let me in
just let me in
and let me leave
just let me leave this world
come on now let me leave this world
at least just for a while
This is my home I come here by day or night
I brought you here
Just to share when we're fine and fear
Fuck! Es war ein Fehler ich war falsch
Ich war falsch ich war falsch
This my home I come here moat be alone
To keep myself far far away from the pain and fights
Fuck! Es war ein Fehler ich war falsch Falsch
Fuck! Mein Fehler ich war falsch
Fu lachst über mich
Ich will nicht lachen
Ich will nicht lachen ich will
Du lachst über mich
Ich ich will nicht lachen
Ich will nicht lachen ich will
Du lachst du lachst über mich
This is my home
I come here by day or night
I brought you here
Just to share when we're fine and fear
Mein Fehler ich war falsch
Ich war falsch falsch
Fuck! Mein Fehler ich war falsch
Du lachst über mich
Ich will nicht lachen
Ich will nicht lachen
Ich will ich will
Du lachst über mich
Ich ich will nicht lachen
Ich will nicht lachen
Ich will
Du lachst über mich
Du lachst über mich?
Ha! Falsch falsch
Falsch! Ich lach über dich!
Ha! Falsch!
The sun is bleeding through the blinds
We murdered yet another night
I close my eyes and swallow pain
My body aches like Saturday
I'm one to watch and you're one to say
I never really cared
CHORUS:
And I'm not coming home
Tonight so don't wait up
'cause I bet it never gets this cold in California
My eyes are sensitive to sight,
And my skin burns under the light.
I shut my eyes and sound the end
On what I thought was my best bet
And all that's left is left unsaid
but I never really cared.
CHORUS (2x)
I'll count headlights on the way back home
each one holds a wish and its secrets hold
of a girl who twists my thoughts and ways
that make me smile and suffocate.
CHORUS (4x)
You are the world within the world that I exist
You are the touch that just won't fade
You are the end and beginning of each and every day
You are the reason I stay sane
It's hard to see beautiful
Oh, it's hard to see beautiful
In your own eyes
But you make me beautiful
For the very first time
Does anybody know what it's like
To feel larger than life
To look deep in your soul
And know you're not alone
Does anybody know how it feels
To find something that's real
And make it your own
That's when you know that you found home
Home
You found home
Home
And when the strings inside me
Unravel to the ground
You are the hand that gathers me up
And when I'm laughing so hard
That I can hardly breathe
How do you know just when enough's enough
Oh, it's hard to feel beautiful
Oh, it's hard to feel beautiful in your own skin
But you make me
You make me beautiful
Over and over again
Does anybody know what it's like
To feel larger than life
To look deep in your soul
And know you're not alone
Does anybody know how it feels
To find something that's real
And make it your own
That's when you know that you found home
Home
You found home
Home
Don't let me down
'Cause I've waited all my life
To find, yeah
Does anybody know what it's like
To feel larger than life
To look deep in your soul
And know you're not alone
Does anybody know how it feels
To find something that's real
And make it your own
That's when you know that you found home
Home
You found home
That's when you know that you found home
Home
You found home
Home
(K. Hoffmann)
I've been lost in a crowd
I'm the face nobody knows
I'm the girl in the back of the bar
playing piano
I used to dance in the night
I used to think that I was right
I used to sing out loud
with my voice wailing
Chorus:
Give me time to grow
And give back the dreams I let go
Give me armor of gold
'Cause I'm on my way back home
I'm slowly learning my way
Blessed by every mistake
There's no race to an end
There's no victory in fame
So find the fire that still burns
And find the heart that still yearns
It's time to open this cage
and start flying
Chorus:
Last Chorus:
Oh, give me life as it is
And let me soak in this bliss
No more rooms full of cold
'Cause I'm on my way back home

When shadows fall and leaves whisper the day is ending
My thoughts are ever wandering home
When crickets call my heart is forever yearning
Once more to be returning.
When the hills can see the settin' sun
Stars begin to spark one by one
Nights covers all and though fortune may forsake me
Sweet dream will ever take me home.
Nights covers all and though fortune may forsake me
Sweet dream will ever take me home...
I see the landscape run
And the wonder paint by the sun
I feel the wind on my face,
I ride the horse of my fate
The triumph of the twilight in the sky
And the pureness of the sunrise inside
I will bless my land again,
I will meet my heroes again
[CHORUS:]
I'm coming home alone
The king will be there again
The White Wolf run towards the sun
I will be there, my kingdom,
Your king is ready to action,
I promise you, my sons, we will have a second chance again
I have climbed the mountains of the lunacy
I have sailed the rivers of my destiny
I have seen the Black Death trace
the Jackal's walk and his fate
Now I am where I have to be,
here the light will reign with me
my kingdom mirrors my soul,
my heroes are my force
[CHORUS:]
I'm coming home alone
The king will be there again
The White Wolf run towards the sun
I will be there, my kingdom,
Your king is ready to action,
I promise you, my sons, we will have a second chance again
The only the thing I see ahead is
Just the heat a rising off the road
The rainbows I've been chasing keep on fading before I find my pot of gold
But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever know
Are long ago and far behind and wrapped up in my memories of home
Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes
Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace
While she hung out the clothes,
Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove
My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home
Now the miles I put behind me ain't as hard as the miles that lay ahead
And its much to late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy said
The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads,
My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home.
Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes
Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace
While she hung out the clothes,
Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove
My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home
Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads,
My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home.
Could a feeling be so wrong,
Why I left you for so long,
Home, though I miss you more each day,
There was nothing you could say,
I had to go my way,
Show them I was older now,
And not some toy that they could play with,
Tell me how, everything I need today is
Lost only traces on faces,
That won't remember me now,
Yes I'm going back there somehow
Lost where my memory waits for me,
Home is where I belong,
But it's not the same when you're gone
With a lifetime passing by,
Every question asking why
Home, if I ever feel you're mine,
We will meet again in time,
Just realise that I'm old enough to know by now
That foolish dreams don't last forever,
Funny how, looking back I thought I'd never
See only traces on faces,
That won't remember me now,
Yes I'm going back there somehow,
Lost where my memory waits for me,
Home is where I belong,
But it's not the same when you're gone
(My heart takes me
Home, been so long,
They won't remember me now)
Yes I'm going back there somehow,
(Lonely road that leads me nowhere
Home, I was wrong
Home is where I belong)
But it's not the same when you're gone,
(Can't replace what waits for me there)
Home, if I ever feel you're mine,
We will meet again in time,
Just realise that I'm old enough
To know by now,
That foolish dreams don't last for ever,
Funny how,
Sometimes I just wonder whether
Looking back I thought I'd never
See only traces on faces,
That won't remember me now,
Yes I'm going back there somehow,
Lost where my memory waits for me,
Home is where I belong,
But it's not the same when you're gone
Traveling at night, the headlights were bright
And weŠŽ been up many an hour
And all through my brain
Came the refrain
Of home and itŠ warming fire
CHORUS
And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has itŠ own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still
The people I've seen
They come in between
The cities of tiring life
The trains come and go,
But inside you know
The struggle will soon be a fight
CHORUS
Traveling at night,
The headlights were bright.
But soon the sun came through the trees
Around the next bend
The flowers will send
The sweet scene of home in the breeze
CHORUS
I was born in a cradle of love.
I had two brothers who beat me up
When I was 7 years old
I had a friend named Tom
And when we were together
I didn't want to go home
When I was 15, I was very confused
I made a bad habit out of breaking the rules
The kitchen window
Was my door to the night
And when I got caught
They made me stay home
I was 20 years old when I met you
And as soon I as saw you
I knew what I had to do
I still remember the way you looked
And how I wanted to tell you
I want to take you home
I'm 26 and I still love you
But as far as the world goes
I still don't have a clue
What it's for or what it's about
But until I find out,
I'll just call it home
I'm someone different now, but those days still live in my dreams
And I've been wondering how we walked away from destiny.
Look in my dirty mirror and my reflection's gone.
I'm broke and livid now but one day I'll be going home..going home.
So just who am I now? I had a fire in my eyes.
I never intended to be assimilated but one day I'll be going home.
Those days were home to my heart.
I work so hard, man, so don't trip me up
Shakin' a leg like the tail o' the pup
I'm payin' dues till I register heat
Sure hope I don't end up on the street
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
So many people rise and fall
Who's lookin' after you at all?
Nobody knows anybody at all
Strangers in paradise down at the mall
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
The life we live is tricky tricky
I love my home, and my family
Who's gonna love you when the
Mountain gets steep?
We're gonna make it-in a jeep
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
Home, boy
Home, boy
You better think about your home, boy
Better love it
Don't shove it
Every motherfucker really needs a home
Home, Home
Oh I need my home
When I get home I feel so good
Cause the door is locked
And it ain't just wood
No asshole better get in my way
Cause I got everything
I'm still home I feel good
I got everything like I should
I'm safe, I'm alright
I got my home I feel alright
I got my home I feel alright
HOME (Jim Reeves)
Written by Roger Miller
Well, I've been a traveler most of my life
Never took a home, never took a wife
Ran away young and decided to roam
Wanna see my mama and my daddy back home
CHORUS:
Home, where the river runs cold
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call
I remember stories that my daddy used to tell
My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me
REPEAT CHORUS
Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Mom sent a letter, got it not long ago
She said "come home, I'm missin' you so
Hey again, up for a spin?...
Pretty rain make you smile...
This is something, why don't you come in?...
This is some swell trash...
Jesus, he's easy, the safest way to go home...
Hell, nothing's boring, never could panic alone...
Hey again, my only friend, pretty rain makes you smile
don't pretty rain make you smile?...
You are something, why don't you come in?...
You are swell trash...
Hyper-martyr, never could panic alone...
Find her, untie her, my safest way to go home
Verse I
Last night in Chicago, last week in New York,
last Christmas between near and far €
If I search for one thing that I really can't find,
the answer must be in my heart,
I count every second since you went away,
lost one million faces at all,
but the world turns around while the time's passin`by,
let everything live and let die €
Verse II
I wish one day in my heart,
there is more than pleasure and pain €
Im with you when sleep cames, I find you in dreams,
image that you call my name,
Where are you where have you been so long ago,
that my heart remember it all?
Why this life must be so hard with you in my mind?
Please leave my head leave me alone!
Refrain:
I want you to come back and carry me home,
through thunderstorm lightning and fears.
So I walk through the world and see your face again,
I wish that one day you'll be there €
You'll be there € I wish that one day you'll be there
You'll be there € How I wish that one day you'll be there
You'll be there €

Get in the van, hit the road
Against the steam we swim
Another town, another club
Forever drink life to the brim
Different night, different crowd
Always pure 'n always loud
Give it all, a little more
Till I die, that's what I'm here for
Home is where the heart is
My heart is where the road is
Home is where the heart is
The road is where my home is
Like a dog we use to live
A lot to gain a lot to give
We have a dream, the four of us
Conquer the world in a broken bus
Modern nomads, don't stick too long
Unload the van and play our song
And if you wake, the morning after
Our ugly bus became a little wafter
Home is where the heart is
My heart is where the road is
Home is where the heart is
The road is where my home is
Home is where the heart is
My heart is where the road is
I try to find myself a way home
How far away can my home be
Een spreekwoord zegt: home is where the heart is . Thuis, dat is waar je hart ligt. Mijn hart ligt zo'n beetje overal in Europa. Het leven onderweg is zwaar maar ook geweldig. Ik voel me vaak als een moderne nomaad die trekt van land naar land. Het geeft een heerlijk vrij gevoel om met een bus door Europa te reizen en iedere avond in een andere stad je liedjes te mogen spelen.
I'm staring out into the night,
Trying to hide the pain.
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.
Well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
The closer I get to you.
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
But your love, it makes true.
And I don't know why.
You always seem to give me another try.
So I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
I'm going home.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all,
And then some you don't want.
Be careful what you wish for,
'Cause you just might get it all.
You just might get it all, yeah.
Oh, well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old.
I said these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
I'm going home.
If I woke up one morning with my memory gone,
I'd pick out some clothes and I'd put them on,
And walk down the street, and find a cafe,
I'd order a Guinness, and I'd sit there all day.
Then some kids would come in and start a fuss
About how great their weekend in New Orleans was
Then I'd look down and smile, like their tale was my own,
And I'd open my eyes, and I'd know I was home,
Where my friends are, even when I'm not.
I wish you were here.
And then it would rain, like it sometimes does,
If we were bored that wouldn't bother us.
We'd just get in the car and drive though the night,
And get lost in East Texas, but no oner would mind
Because we'd find our way home, like we always do.
Funny how the time flies in our youth,
But with darkness approaching, we'll all grow close
In the place we'll call heaven
But for now, we'll just call it home
Where my friends are, even when I'm not.
I wish you were here.
I'll see you-- at home.
Staring at an empty cup of understanding
Maybe you could fill it up and tell me why you left
I don't want to be alone in this ocean
Of people passing by rushing toward the end
And I can see your soft reflection like a ghost in the mirror
And I would do whatever I could for a chance to have you here
(Chorus)
And be home again
Now that you're gone I can see that I was wrong
Back in your arms I feel home again
Now that you're gone I can see I was wrong
Back in your arms again
Again
Even as the clouds roll by I swear they mock me
Cause every one that fills the sky turns into your face
Maybe it was heaven's fault they lost an angel
I couldn't hold on and I let her get away
And I can see you soft reflection like a ghost in the mirror
And I would do whatever it could for a chance to have you here
I've got a little red bow
and I bought it for you
'cause I know you're not fair
I don't get it, oh well
and you color my skin
and the colors don't blend
'cause I'm gonna get you
and your little dog too
there's a yellow brick road
that we follow back home
'cause I know you can't wait
your belligerent hate
there's no place like home
there's no place like home
like home
I've, got a southern belle too
and ruby red shoes
and a body of straw
are you sick of it all?
there's a man made of tin
with an oil can grin
and I'm gonna get you
and your little dog too
there's a yellow brick road
that we follow back home
and I know you can't wait
your belligerent hate
there's no place like home
there's no place like home
there's a little white porch
and you wanted it so
and you let me go down
to the end of the road
and the black and the white
a technicolorful life
can I stand by your side?
we can make it alright
like home
'cause I'm home
there's a little white porch
and you wanted it so
and you let me go down
to the end of the road
and the black and the white
a technicolorful life
then another arrived
it's a cowardly lion
what I want from this world
what I wanna resolve
when I want you to stay
so I want you to wait
I don't wanna be bold
I don't wanna be cold
I don't wanna grow old
I don't wanna go home
I sit here staring at the wall
asking why I set myself to fall
and I think to myself
is this my life
We lie, we cheat, we steal, we climb
we beg, we fall, we hope, we die
I think -- we're doing it wrong
doing it wrong
I stand outside
and watch the world fly and pass me by
it's nice to look and learn but never to experience
the pain, the guilt, the fear, the hate
the pride, the shame, of stupid mistakes
We're doing it wrong
I push away my past
what am I hiding from
can't open up myself
to the people that I love
In my final days...
I wanna look back and know that I tried
the best that I can -- So I can move On
To another Disease and I do believe
that time is on my side -- and I've had fun
I'll never think -- that I'm alone
When I hear you -- I feel at home
Will somebody help me, hear me,
I'm screaming over here
I've been sneaking out your back door
since I can't remember when
and thinking about the world I didn't know
and how I wanted in
but now I find I'm in the thick of it
and feeling so alone
I'd take the chance
just one more chance to get me anywhere
It's like I'm running down every road but home
I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
so here we go, oh
and where I'm heading to it's nobody's guess
so here we go, oh
so here we go, oh
I saw the map like any other would
looking to find and follow lines
that led me to question
but I can see it in the symmetry
it's what was really always meant to be
this singularity is clear from a distance
so I'm dying here to fall in love with home
I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
so here we go, oh
and where I'm heading to it's nobody's guess
so here we go, oh
so here we go, oh
Staring into mirrors
lost in my design
believe in dreams and wait for signs
you will always find me when I run away
so I will not slow down until I make it back into your arms this time, oh
I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
so here we go, oh
and where I'm heading to it's nobody's guess
so here we go, oh
I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
so here we go, oh
and where you're headed to you don't have to guess
so here we go, oh
I'm headed home, oh
I'm headed home, oh
I'm on a flight tonight
You see me waving at you
You're painting flowers on the ceiling
But you're looking through the leaves
And the cloudy sky to me
I'm carrying our dreams across the sky
To another city where the future lies
For you and I to be, in perfect harmony
I can almost hear that song behind your eyes
And I'll fall asleep to that distant lullaby
What a dream we have to offer
Wanna try to make this all our own
To take this place and make this home
I'm far away tonight
You feel it, but I'll greet the new moon
Tell him our plans and what's before us
And he'll do the same for me
Recount the history of a million years of love and loss in life
And giving up his crown, the city lights
For he's content to shine for us instead
What a dream we have to offer (what a dream)
Wanna try to make this all our own (all our own)
To take this town and make this home
What a plan to set in motion (what a plan)
Wanna try to make this all our own (all our own)
To take this place and make this home
What a dream we have to offer (what a dream)
Wanna try to make this all our own (all our own)
To take this town and make this home
What a plan to set in motion (what a plan)
Wanna try to make this all our own (all our own)
To take this place and make this home
Make this home (make this home)
Make this home
Make this home
Make this home
Well here I am at my front door
And oh what an odor is rising
It seems I've stood on this porch at lesser times
Now I've been down the road
You know the one you've dreamed about
And that's surprises you
And I'm sure you'll chalk it up to sell out crime
Home
What do you do when opportunity knocks
When success stalks and along comes fame
Do you open the door or watch in horror
Through the peep hole as they all go away
Lottery or poverty you're a commodity so what's it gonna be
I'm moving on I'm moving on
Home I'm going home I'm going home
Sitting in that same spot
There with the other lot whining
And you know this must be just a mirage
Ain't no doubt I ain't got the clout that's defined by you
But oil stains are all you're gonna find in my garage
Hey whatcha gonna do when the fun stops
When the boat rocks and the crew gets old
Make up your mind it's about time
Because at this time you're staying
Home
[Repeat Chorus 2x]
[Repeat Chorus]
Traveling at night, the headlights were bright
And we'd been up many an hour
And all through my brain
Came the refrain
Of home and it's warming fire
CHORUS
And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it's own wings
To fly over the mountains
Though I'm standing still
The people I've seen
They come in between
The cities of tiring life
The trains come and go,
But inside you know
The struggle will soon be a fight
CHORUS
Traveling at night,
The headlights were bright.
But soon the sun came through the trees
Around the next bend
The flowers will send
The sweet scene of home in the breeze
CHORUS
What's worth nothing else but love
Take a walk down any street now
Every one of us in our own little world
Looking for a heart with whom to beat now
What's worth nothing else but love
I'm prepared to take the heat now
What's worth more than anything else at all
To keep you firmly on your feet now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong
Where the land meets the sea
She'll be smiling so sweetly now
I hope that she'll be here much longer than I will
My heart loves her with every beat now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong
We'll wander off through the dead of night
'Cause wasteland of shattered souls
Warm by the firelight
I peer into the darkness alone
As the Indian summer that I remember
Settles on my bones
Cracked and weary
I asked for direction home
Home
Let the words spill from my mouth
Love
Love is everything I want
I'm one of many more to come
Love
Love is everything I want
Crossroads outside of town
The heartbroken faces charred
The city lights, so far and dull
Turning left, I know it's time
With an urgent wind upon my rolling heels
To carry me along
My face aghast
That I turn to ruins past and home
Home
Let the words spill from my mouth
Love
Love is everything I want
I'm one of many more to come
Love
Love is everything I want
Wander off in the dead of night
Past terrors and broken homes
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Of riverbanks and catacombs
Sleep into the guillotine
Always lived this live alone
Lay down beneath the law
Cry out I know it's time
Love is everything I want
Love is everything I want
Love is everything I want
Love is everything I want
In a small town down in Georgia over forty years ago
Her maiden name was Musik til she met that Jackson boy
They married young like folks did then, not a penny to their name
But they believe the one you vow to love
Should always stay that same
And on the land his daddy gave him, a foundation under way
For a love to last forever or until their dying day
They built a bond that's strong enough to stand the test of time
And a place for us to turn to when our lives were in a bind
And they made their house from a toolshed
Grandaddy rolled down on two logs
And they built walls all around it
And they made that house a home
They taught us 'bout good living
They taught is right and wrong
Lord there'll never be another place
In this world I'll call home
My momma raised five children, four girls then there was me
She found her strength with faith in God and love of family
She never had a social life, home was all she knew
Except the time she took a job, to play a bill or two
My daddy skinned his knuckles on the cars that he repaired
He never earned much money but he gave us all he had
He never made the front page but he did the best he could
And folks drove their cars from miles around
To let him look underneath the hood
And they made their house from a toolshed
Grandaddy rolled down on two logs
And they built walls all around it
And they made that house a home
They taught us 'bout good living
They taught is right and wrong
Lord there'll never be another place
In this world I'll call home
No there'll never be another place in this world
That I'll call Home
Everything
Is catching up with me
I awake
To find i'm not at all where I
Should be
And it feels
I'm getting to the end
And it's hard
To figure out what's real
And what's
Pretend
To break from what
We're tied to
God knows
How much i've tried to
And I am still inside you
And I am still inside you
I escape
Every now and then
And to think
I find myself
Back here again
And again
I used to know who I was
Untill you came along
I return
To the only place
I've ever felt
That I belong
To break from what
We're tied to
God knows
How much i've tried to
And I am still inside you
And I am still inside you
Poetry of politics and lost entities
Government is loneliness on this we agree
High are the angels and low I decree
Love only burns when fueled by belief
Home, welcome home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our... home
Climb up the mountains then slide to the seas
Beauty adores us on this we agree
God is a witness and God is a tease
Pick up your faith, yeah, everybody come with me
(Music by Dream Theater, Lyrics by Mike Portnoy)
(12:53)
The Sleeper:
Shine- lake of fire
Lines take me higher
My mind drips desire
Confined and overtired
Living this charade
Is getting me nowhere
I can't shake this charade
The city's cold blood calls me home
HomeIt's what I long for
Back homewhere I belong
The city- it calls to me
Decadent scenes from my memory
Sorrow- eternity
My demons are coming to drown me
Help- I'm falling, I'm crawling
I can't keep away from its clutch
Can't have it, this habit
It's calling me back to my home
The Miracle:
I remember the first time she came to me
Poured her soul out all night and cried
I remember I was told there's a new love that's born
For each one that has died
I never thought that I
Could carry on with this life
But I can't resist myself
No matter how hard I try
Living their other life
Is getting them nowhere
I'll make her my wife
Her sweet temptation calls me home
HomeIt's what I long for
My homewhere she belongs
Her ecstasy- means so much to me
Even decieving my own blood
Victoria watches and thoughtfully smiles
She's taking me to my home
Help- he's my brother, but I love her
I can't keep away from her touch
Deception, dishonor
It's calling me back to my home
Nicholas:
Her story- it holds the key
Unlocking dreams from my memory
Solving this mystery
Is everything that is a part of me
Help- regression, obsession
I can't keep away from her touch
Leave no doubt, to find out
It's calling me back to my home
Another summer day
Is come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm
Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that
Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home
And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
But this was not your dream
But you always believed in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home
And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
I still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It'll all be right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
Wish I were with you
I couldn't stay
Every direction
Leads me away
Pray for tomorrow
But for today
All I want is to be home
Stand in the mirror
You look the same
Just lookin' for shelter
From cold and the pain
Someone to cover
Safe from the rain
All I want is to be home
Echoes and silence
Patience and grace
All of these moments
I'll never replace
No fear of my heart
Absence of faith
All I want is to be home
Ooh
All I want is to be home
People I've loved
I have no regrets
Some I remember
Some I forget
Some of them living
Some of them dead
All I want is to be home
As the dawn sun breaks over sleepy gardens
I'll be here to do all things to comfort you.
And though I've been away
left you alone this way
why don't you come awake
and let your first smile take me home.
The shadows in the park were longer yesterday
and Lady Luck stood still, waiting for the kill.
And on a jumbo ride
over seas grey, deep and wide
I flew for heaven's sake
and let the angels take me home.
Down steep and narrow lanes I see the chimneys smoking
above the golden fields ... know what the robin feels
in his summer jamboree.
All elements agree
in sweet and stormy blend ---
midwife to winds that send me home.
If you can look into his tired and weary eyes
The can tell a million stories of all he holds inside
Waiting patiently 'til the day he dies
For a better life-for a better life
For a better life-for a better life
He saw people die because of their beliefs
He saw a leader shot down cold by men behind the trees
But he believes he believes that one day he will see
Love and harmony-love and harmony
Love and harmony-love and harmony
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
Tell me how it is that someone can't believe
When the sun gives light and brown comes to the leaves
But we have got our own ideas of how the story's told
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
Lies and make believe-lies and make believe
He said
Take me to a world that's filled with happy people
Take me to a land where the poor men are the rich ones
Where there are smiling faces and the lonely ain't alone
Take me to that peaceful place I call Home
Once upon a time
Before all this mess began
I never felt alone
All now stolen
Simple and surreal
Was it a world of make-believe
You could take by the hand
And I'd follow
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made the choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Never thought I'd see the day
When my life was not my own
I will throw it all away
Without sorrow
But it wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't change the way I feel
For today is the price I pay
For tomorrow
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Somehow suddenly
It slipped away from me
I reach out, hopelessly
You're gone
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice
Now I'm running
Turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Hear my voice
Did you see me coming
I made a choice, but
Now I'm running
So turn me round
Let me go
Take me home
Take all your medicine
It's gonna make you well
You'll have to run till it's over
I'm sure you'll be able to tell
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high
Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again
Talk to the doctor
He said you're well for home
Take all your medicine
Be sure you're never alone
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high...
Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again
Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you...

[Layzie Bone]
I been stuck in the struggle
And I been wonderin' if I'm ever gon' bubble
I'm gettin' caught up in the dust
Instead of usin' my muscle
And everytime I extend my heart to my mother
Caught up in the game now I'm back up in the hustle
Sometimes I sit and I wonder
If a nigga pull my number
If it wasn't for the Bone Thug fam'
In this world where nobody don't give a damn
But I'm still a man
Got a soul program
I'ma pump my fist
I'm stayin' ready for this
And you can put this on Wish
I never stayed in ya buis'
And when I needed a ride
You wouldn't give me a lift
And now I'm poppin' my cris
You niggas all on my dick
I wanna change the world
You wanna change ya life
I wouldn't a put up a fight
If I knew it was trite
They say everything happin' for a reason
Can you tell me why these niggas bleedin'
Needin' general assistance
Out here needin' public housing
Out here tryna make ends meet
Tryna get on their feet
But see so cloudy
And I know what you don't know
You better get on your mission and get down for your dough
See the real niggas ready out here taken control
See I'm screamin' out Mo'
With my pockets on swoll
Please Mr. Postman, quit bringin' these bills to my house
Quit bringin' distrust to my spouse
Casuse I'm ready for the kill on look out, look out
If you niggas try to run up on the Bone
I'ma show you like this I'ma pull out my chrome
I don't wanna have to send a nigga home
Lord please take me home
Come and take me home
[Chorus]
[Phil Collins]
Take, take me home
Cause I dont remmeber
Take, take me home
Cause I dont remember
[Krayzie Bone]
Home,Home,Home,Home,Home,
Home,Home,Home,Home,Home
Please take me home
When I'm lookin' at my money now
livin' foul
I was runnin' wild, sur-vi-ving
Cause I'm nine-to-five
And even puttin' overtime if I had to grind
I was stayin' up, slangin' up, hangin' up on the block
Duckin' the cops clocked on the night-shift
Didn't think I'd ever make it out, out, out of the ghetto
But we finally made it
Stay dedicated to the music we made yeah
Now it's on Bone Thug
Leave alone, came back the next year
Number 1 platinum song it blew up from the go
And what do you know (Oh no)
Eazy, rest his soul
Left us in the mess, I don't regret it
But we better get up and get it, go
Everythang's gon' wrong
Especially Bone, it never been right
I knew it woulda been on
We woulda been tight
We would of been in the zone ridin' so high
Up in the game fire, does, lie
See we used to love makin' music
We was always in the studio, groovin'
We kept it movin', we was ready to do it (Right)
But you know I'm goin' through it
And ain't feelin this rap thing right now
They got me trippin' ready to flip
They got me trippin' ready to come get my chips
They got me trippin' loadin' the clips
They trippin', Lord I feel like I'm losin' it right
now (Right now, now)
[Chorus]
[Bizzy Bone]
I'll never give in
I'll never give up
I'll let 'em live in
They sinnin'
They pretend to be tough (Pretend to be tough)
Pretend to be blessed
They want money and women, it's never enough
hope nobody knows just too much
You better be good, you know up in the hood it's so,
we give 'em the dough
Fired out, laughin' up
When niggas died, niggas brought around nasty junk
And to the grave, I been one of the brave
Not one of the slaves
And I'll be one of the same, stay hatin' the fake
On the television runnin' 'round tellin' niggas be ready for hate
Guard Leathafce and the grin right up under my face
I steady debate the pain that I bring with hate
Sweet as the cake, I take another puff and shake
The smell of right it's all about guarding, guard the weak
Lost mommy, poppy left home
I miss Wish' Uncle Charlie
Sit list in the back tellin' his selction
His date is probably
Probably my mommy, song
Cryin' for the life of you gone
Just me and my destiny let's roll, let's roll
[Chorus]
[Wish]
When I lost my Uncle Charle a part of me went wrong
And it happened when the Bone was comin' up so strong
We just wanted him to see what we do
You motivated us at the shows we see too
And I really hope u live through what we spit on the song
You might have through somethin' hopin' nothin' like Bone
Like one said we'll never make it
Like two, thirty mil in they faces
Crossed over, back to the hood we souljahs
The music nigga make it back, scandlous
But faith kicked in and the world shows and we winnin' now
Gotta keep it comin' fool in my baby's mouth
And things have changed like relationships
Ain't did nothin', now you wanna flip
Suin' people thangs you would've never made on your own
Now I wanna stay, watch thug niggas leave the hood
Bye, think I'm home
Stick in the hood, mess with scrubs, it'll all be gone
You can really help a busta if it ain't ment to be
Wit a little oohwee, wit a little oohwee
I'm tired of tryin' to help these thugs
Lord just guide em' home, guide 'em home
[Chorus]
Mama's got her apron on
Standing in the kitchen
Cooking up my favorite dish
Whatever she is fixing
Daddy's in a picture in a frame
That's always sitting by the phone
Daffodils are popping up
Out behind the clothesline
Underneath that tree I planted
When I was just a boy of nine
Man I never can believe
Just how much it's grown when I go
Home
Back home
To the gentle place that held be close
As I became a man
And the streets are all familiar
And an old friend shakes my hand
And I feel fine
So fine
Yeah, knowing that this road I'm wandering on
From time to time
It always leads me home
Brother, he'll be waiting with the
Latest from the grapevine, saying
Man you won't believe them stories
About those crazy friends of mine
And all them little scandals
That a small town can't seem to leave alone
Later on we'll sit around
Bellies tight from supper
Telling all them stories
That we just can't get enough of
And somewhere in an honest laugh
It'll finally hit me that I'm
Home
Back home
Where the memories all have gathered up
And slowly turned to gold
And I carry them along with me wherever I may go
And I feel fine
So fine
In knowing that this road I'm wandering on
From time to time
It always leads me home
Back home
Well I go and put some flowers down at daddy's stone
And I see that empty space beside him
It always makes me glad that I came
Home
Back home
Where the Bible is the Bible
And the angels get their wings
And the circle is unbroken
When I hear them church bells ring
And I feel fine
You know I feel so fine
Yeah, knowing that this road I'm wandering on
From time to time unwinds
Cross the rivers, through the pines
It always leads me home
Back home
Yeah I'm going back home
Back home
Think of home
Home
When I think of home
I think of a place where there's love overflowing
I wish I was home
I wish I was back there with the things I been knowing
Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the snowflakes that fall have a meaning
Sprinklin' the scene, makes it all clean
Maybe there's a chance for me to go back there
Now that I have some direction
It would sure be nice to be back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend, let me start again
Suddenly my world has changed it's face
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing
If you're list'ning God
Please don't make it hard to know
If we should believe in the things that we see
Tell us, should we run away
Should we try and stay
Or would it be better just to let things be?
Living here, in this brand new world
Might be a fantasy
But it taught me to love
So it's real, real to me
And I've learned
That we must look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours
Like me
Like home...
You can't always pick the dog you find
maybe i wasn't what you had in mind
but i could love you
i could love you
i could love you a lot
i'm here and i wonder if i'm lost
'cause i can't seem to understand
the way i feel
i'm not here to be a creep
i'm just feeling
incomplete
take me home
if i wasn't here i wouldn't mind
but it's you up there and i'm so far behind
i could love you
i could love you
i could love you a lot
she says i'm the one she really wants
but i'll never be the one that she needs
i'm not here to be a creep
i'm just feeling
incomplete
take me home
Children
Be it ever so humble,
There's no place like home.
A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there,
Which seek through the world,
Is ne'er met with elsewhere.
Home on a kite we fly,
Home on a breeze we blow
Eyeing the folks below and
Watching everybody run,
Each one heading for a different place
Watching everybody hide,
Each behind a different face
Home where the days are long
Back where the people are free,
Home where all sides agree and,
Everybody has a friend, oh
And no one ever has to grab
Everybody shares the love,
Giving everything they have.
Forever forever your lamp will burn
Forever home forever would that you'd learn
That you came with nothing
So with nothing you'll return
Home
You know you're not alone
It's only 'cause you're not a home
That you feel so out of place.
Forever forever your lamp will burn
Forever home forever would that you'd learn
That you came with nothing
So with nothing you'll return
Home where all the mums can sing,
Back where the children don't cry,
Home where you never ask why and
Everybody has enough, and y'don't have to put on clothes
Nobody has to hide 'case everyone already knows.
Here is a song
From the wrong side of town
Where I'm bound
To the ground
By the loneliest sound
That pounds from within
And is pinning me down
Here is a page
From the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here
The heat and the sickliest
Sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the backs of my knees
And my feet
I'm drowning in time
To a desperate beat
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong
Feels like home
I should have known
From my first breath
God send the only true friend
I call mine
Pretend that I'll make amends
the next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here
Thinking back when we first met
I remember what you said
You said you'd never leave me
I let go of your hand
Built my castle in the sand
But now I'm reachin' out again
And I'm not letting go
Till you
Hold me
Mold me
Sometimes I feel so all alone
See, I gotta find my way back home
So why don't you
Shape me
make me
Wash me whiter than the snow
I gotta find my way
Back home
Master upon my knees i pray
I just want to be the clay
Put your arms around me
Place my life in your hands
Lord, I know I'm just a man
I know you understand
This time I'm not letting go
Till you
Anoint me
Appoint me
Sometimes I feel so alone
See, I gotta find my way back home
So why don't you
Chastise me
Baptize me
Wash me whiter than the snow
I gotta find my way
'Cause I'm lost and alone
I've been wandering
Long enough to know
Humbly I search for you
And I'm not gonna rest
Till you
Choose me
Use me
Sometimes I feel so alone
I'm on my way back home
So why don't you
Direct me
Bless me
Wash me whiter then the snow
I'm on my way
Back home
Home
Don't get me wrong, I'm feeling O.K.
But when I'm without you, it's just not the same
Don't misunderstand me, I' feeling alright
But when I'm without you the day turns into night...into night
You dream of a future...a possible place
Where we lie together face to face
And I'm looking forward
I will not deny
I dream of a future made for you and I
You and I
...and then I'm with you
No longer alone
when I'm with you
It feels like I'm home
And you are with me
No longer alone
How could it be?
It feels like I'm home
It feels like I'm home
I look through the darkness into the sky
The moon up above me brilliantly shines
I've never been happier watching it glow
I'm here by meself, but I know I'm not alone...I'm not alone
I look through the brightness into the sky
The sun up above me, splitting out fire
Call me a child, call me naive
The world is much brighter
Than it ever used to be
Chorus
Rolling down the road
Going no where
Guitar packed in the trunk
Somewhere round mile marker 112
Papa started hummin the funk
I gotta jones in my bones before we know
We were singing this melody
Stop the car pulled out the guitar
Halfway to New Orleans
Said take me home
Take me home
Could feel the sun about to rise
When I realized we had nothing to fear
It's just me and my daddy and a kid named Cope
Making music that nobody would hear
And then the sun let up and it split the night
Spilling over our jubilee
Ten thousand cars by the side of the road
Grooving far as the eye can see
Said take me home
Take me home
Said take me home
Said take me home
This greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found
Said this greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found his way home
Said take me home
Hot damn you should have felt the groove
Like I was swimming in a sea of soul
The sun was rising and the day was hot
And we was all about to lose control
My daddy turned his face up towards the sky
And I knew that there was nothing to lose
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes
And we disappeared into the groove
Said take me home
Said take me home
Take me home
Said take me home
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
[Repeat x3]
You don't know nothing about this
Take me home
Said take me home
[repeat]
Tell me how did we fall into this place
We move on, we will never be replaced
And I can't even think about the next
It's too far away
First I must forget, by leaving
I am a different man
I didn't have the picture
For the perfect frame
I know that
We travelled streets unknown
Been away too long
Now it's time to go home
Back with our love
We should never be strangers
You should never pass me on the street
Would you please remember me as I remember you
Looking back we were strangers in the night
We were told that we let our hearts collide
And I swear I had the time of my life
Wish I could stay, it just wouldn't be right
I know you
You turn the light off last
You let me sleep to dream
You let me wake up first
I believe in you and that will never change
But I must turn away
Now it's time to go home
Home, back with our love
We should never be strangers
You should never pass me on the street
Remember me please
Now it's time to go home
If you are hungry I will
bake some bread for you
If you are worried I will
hold your head for you
If you can't sleep at night I will
screen your dreams for you
And if you feel uptight I will
make everything alright for you.
If the key don't work / knock on the door
If the key don't work / knock on the door
no matter how far away you seem I am always
here at home
Lost in cheap delirium
Searching the neon lights
I move carefully
Sink in the city aquarium
Sing in the key of night
As they're watching me
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Wrapped in silent elegance
Beautifully broken down
As illusions burst
Too late to learn from experience
Too late to wonder how
To finish first
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Take me somewhere we can be alone
Make me somewhere I can call a home
Won't you take me home
Won't you take me home
'Cause lately I've been losing my own
Won't you take me home
Take me away, take me away
I don't want to stay,
I don't want to stay
I hate what you say, I hate what you say
Hopefully I never slip inside a sky that's gray
Your holiness bled, your holiness prays
Your holiness bled
I'm sick in the head in a number of ways
I recommend a psychotherapist to clean up your brain
If your heart is broken
Let your heart be broken
Do you know the sunshine
I love you more, I do,
I want to come home to you
It's what my soul has spoken
Around my throat, I'm choking
Do you know the sunshine?
My beautiful dove, my beautiful dove
Floating high up above, floating high up above
I'm swallowing stars and shitting out love
I love you more, I do,
I want to come home
Pure heart and soul, the treasures I own
Where did you go and how have you grown?
I'm sick in the head in a number of ways
I recommend a psychotherapist to clean up your brain
If your heart is broken
Let your heart be broken
Do you know the sunshine ?
I love you more, I do,
I want to come home to you
It's what my soul has spoken
Around my throat, I'm choking
Do you know the sunshine?
Pure heart and soul, the treasures I own
Where did you go and how have you grown?
I'm sick in the head in a number of ways
I recommend a psychotherapist to clean up your brain
If your heart is broken
Let your heart be broken
Do you know the sunshine
I love you more, I do,
I want to come home to you
It's what my soul has spoken
Around my throat, I'm choking
Do you know the sunshine?
I love you more, I do,
I want to come home to you
Home
Is this my home
Been starting over
Bathe in the water
Time
Time after time
I'm feeling so sorry
I run out of words to say
Relieved
I'm so relieved
The table are turning
Don't sacrifice this feeling
Goals
There are no goals
There is no order
Paid for in laughter
Home
Is this my home
Been starting over
Bathe in the water
I'm so sick and tired
of all these things
that drag me down
I've got no where to go
they say that life
is in these hands
you give everything
you give yourself away you give
and still you choke
and find yourself running for the door
come and take me
home
lead me to your door
take me where you are
lead me to your door
at least just for a while
its some kind of life
forever days
we're in the cold
unfamiliar way
so take this fear
and fade it out
it won't make me sad
cause I get sentimental lord
in other ways
and I don't want to let me down here anymore
so come and take me home
lead me to your door
take me where you are
lead me to your door
and let me in
just let me in
and let me leave
just let me leave this world
come on now let me leave this world
at least just for a while
We can't always be together
You gotta pick it up, pick it up again
Things can't always hang together
Because nobody knows
So let's give it a go
Home
You'll be running all the way back home
But nothing's gonna save your soul
You'll be running all the way back home
Home
We can always make things better
When it comes around you gotta nail it down
And this ain't gonna be forever
Because nobody knows
So let's give it a go
Home
You'll be running all the way back home
But nothing's gonna save your soul
You'll be running all the way back home
Home
If there was some way to
Manage this space between us
I find hard to reach
Is it true, what they say
did you really lose your way
Up and down i see you stroll
never looking out, to see which way to go
Should i stop to ask you why
Should i stop and take a wander round
with me
[CHORUS]
To where you always wanted to go
Where you've never been before
a place where you can take off,
your hat, and your coat
I'll make a cup of tea
You can talk, to me
When you wanna leave i'll take you
When you wanna leave i'll take you
When you wanna leave i'll take you home.
Where do you go inside your head
space and emptyness, becomes your flower bed
In your veins a knowledged man
kids are looking up, to find his master plan
When i see your eyes i'll ask you why
Would you like to rest your legs and fly
with me
[REPEAT CHORUS]
silver hair, tired feet, walking the world every day
short of words, full of love, could you help me, i'm on my way
[REPEAT CHORUS]
*home*
belle:
Yes, i made the choice
For papa i will stay
but i dont deserve to lose my freedom in this way
(spoken/sung)you monster!
sung by belle:
if you think that what you've done is right
well then....your a fool
think again
Is this home
is this where i should learn to be happy
never dreamed
that a home could be
dark and cold_____i was told
ev'ry day in my childhood
even when we grow old
home will be where the heart is
never the words so true
my hearts far, far away
home is to
Is this home
is this what i must learn to believe in
try to find something good
in this tragic place
just in case
i should stay here forever
held in this empty space
oh but that wont be easy
i know the reason why
ny hearts far, far away
homes alive
what id give
to return
to the life that i knew lately
but i know that i cant
solve my problems going back
is this home
am i here for a day or forever
shut away from the world_____until
who knows when
oh but then
has my life has been ode to
once it can change again
built by the walls around me
change every lock and key
nothing left nothing holds all of me
my hearts far, far away
home is free.
In my eyes you see the pain
With each lie I take the blame
With each sigh I slowly fall away
You are there when I need you
You sew me up when I bleed through
The endless cloth of lies surrounding me
Everything that I am you have given me
The lessons that I've learned are bringing me home
It's everything that I need
It's all the truth that I believe
Right where I need to be
Just bring me home
I hide in darkness blind to sense
Chasing a dream with false pretense
Help me find the fracture in this dark sky
Everything that I believe is slowly overtaking me
I'm just trying to find my way back home
Endless days are haunting me
Open eyes and I can't sleep
I need this now rescue me
Just bring me home
You can't bring me down
‘Cause I'm going home
It's everything that I need
It's all the truth that I believe
Right where I need to be
Just bring me home
Endless days are haunting me
Open eyes and I can't sleep
I need this now rescue me
Just bring me home
When I think of home
I think of a place where there's
Love overflowing;
I wish I was home,
I wish I was back there,
With the things I've been knowing.
Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning,
Suddenly the snowflakes that fall
Have a meaning.
Sprinling the scene, makes it all clean.
Maybe there;s a chance
For me to go back
Now that I have some direction;
It sure would be nice to be back home,
Where there's love and affection.
And just maybe I can convince time
To slow up.
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up;
Time, be my friend, let me start again...
Suddenly my world is gone
And changed its face,
But I still know where I'm going;
I have had my mind spun around
In space
And yet I've watched it growing.
Oh, if you're listening God,
Please don't make it hard
to know if we should believe
The things we see.
Tell us, should we run away
Should we try and stay-
Or would it be better
Just to let things be?
Living here in this brand-new world
Might be a fantasy;
But it taught me to love,
So it's real, real, real to me...
And I've learned that we must look
Inside our hearts to find...
A world full of love
Like yours, like mine-
Like Home
Every time I try to tell you how I feel inside
I always make the same mistakes
Tie myself in knots
Sometimes even make you cry
When all I ever want to say
Is nobody else in the whole wide world
Makes me feel this way
Nobody else in the whole wide world
Takes my breath away
Makes me feel so strange inside
Dazed confused and starry-eyed
I couldn't love you more
Makes me feel the wrong way round
Inside out and upside down
I couldn't love you more
And every time I try to tell you what I really mean
Nothing seems to come out right
End up murmuring foolishly
It makes me want to scream
How I get so stupefied
There's nobody else in the whole wide world
Makes me feel this way
There's nobody else in the whole wide world
Takes my breath away
Makes me feel so strange inside
Open mouthed and mystified
I couldn't love you more
Makes me feel so upside down
Muddle-headed round and round
I couldn't love you more
Makes me feel so strange inside
Dazed confused and starry-eyed
I couldn't love you more
Makes me feel the wrong way round
Inside out and upside down
I couldn't love you more
(Chorus)
Go ahead roll it up and pass it round
Cause lately's been a whole lot of bullshit going down
A lot of soldiers aint make it through this year
So lets just celebrate that we still here and
Whoooooooaa
Never leave me alooooooooone
Tell em holla at ya boyyy and cause I'll be comin home
I'll be comin home
Ooh, never leave me alooooooooone
Tell em holla at ya boyyy and cause I'll be comin home
I'll be coming home
My homie called me like what up man
Not from Florida but what up fam
It's been a whole lot of hatin again
And if they hatin on me damn what up then
I met this girl when I was three years old
and what I love most she had so much soul
She said excuse me lil homey, I know you don't know me but uh my name is wendy (windy) and yo, I like to blow trees
and from that point I never blow her off
niggas come from out of town I like to show her off
They like to act tough she like to tore em off
and make them straighten up they hat cuz she know they soft
and when I grew up she showed me how to go downtown
and at nighttime her face lit up, so astounding
I told her in my heart is where she'll always be
She never mess with entertainers 'cuz they always leave
She said it feel like you walked and drove on me
knew I was gang affiliated got on t.v. and told on me
I guess that's why last winter she got so cold on me
She said Ye, keep makin that platinum and gold for me
but if you really cared for her
Then you would have never hit the airport and followed your dreams
Sometimes I still talk to her
but when I talk to her it always seem like she talkin bout me
She said you left ya kids and they just like you
They wanna rap and make soul beats just like you
but they just not you
and I just got through
Talkin bout what niggas tryin to do just not new
Now everybody got the game figured out all wrong
I guess you never know what you got till is gone
I guess that's why I'm here and I can't come back home
and guess when I heard that when I was back home
In the interviews I'm representin you makin you proud
Shoot for the stars so if you fall you land on the clouds
Jump in the crowds
Spark ya lighters and wave 'em around
If you don't know by now I'm talkin about Chi-town
(Chorus)
Go ahead roll it up and pass it round
Cause lately's been a whole lot of bullshit going down
A lot of soldiers aint make it through this year
So lets just celebrate that we still here and
Whoooooooaa
Never leave me alooooooooone
Tell em holla at ya boyyy and cause I'll be comin home
I'll be comin home
Ooh, never leave me alooooooooone
Tell em holla at ya boyyy and cause I'll be comin home
I'll be coming home
