karaoke
Lost in cheap delirium
Searchin' 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 losin' on 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 losin' on 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 losin' on my own
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
Hope [echos]
The only thing that we have left to hold [echos]
In a world gone mad there's nowhere left to go [echos]
Where nothing lasts there's permanence I know
Is there something I can say?
To bring back what once remained
Where is all that we let go?
Where is home?
Doubt [echos]
From inside I hear it calling out [echos]
Tearing at the truth it must be found [echos]
In the end it only brings me down
Is there something I can say?
To bring back what once remained
Where is all that we let go?
Where is home?
If you need a reason a reason tonight
To cast every doubt from your heart and your mind
Look to tomorrow and maybe you'll find
Something more. Something more.
Is there something I can say?
To bring back what once remained
Where is all that we let go?
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 anyway
It's all inside your head you know it.
Watching the shadows on the wall
Tell me can you see my thoughts?
Watching the shadows on the wall
You find where your going you work out what's wrong
And you sit down and look at your options you look at them
Find a place to go
Find the place where you know
And you will find where your life is at
You sat down
You worked out your place and your options
Your life is spread out before us
Work on your own independence
And you will find your place before me In my home
In my home before me
Take the opportunity
Some day you'll find just what you see
Don't let it go
Don't let your life go before your on your own
Without independence
And you will find your place before me
Get independent Make your life rearrange
You will find that it is changing
Make the most in every day
Work from the start
Watch it slowly come together
You'll never fall apart

"Boston"
"Representin' mass"
"Boston"
"The worst" "Fuckin' Boston"
"Boston"
[Verse 1: XL]
We're from the B to the O-S-T-O-N
where cats double push friends for dollars and gems
Platinum artistes they don't wanna come here (nah)
not cause of lack of money or bitches, but out of fear
Rappers up here be gettin' overlooked for years
Started hatin' on eachother sabotagin' careers
Ten o' the best MC's we got to offer
to shut down you cock blockin' shit talkers
[Verse 2: Ed O.G.]
Mad niggaz think they flossin' in rap
But no one knew Boston could rap
Till Edo put this shit on the map
Now the change is drastic, Hip-Hop got Jurassic
And none of you Boston bastards made a classic
Got the right voice, make the right noise
Can't stand none of you niggaz and none of you white boys
My men's is down to take the city, hands down
From the ropes to Pakis all the way to Landsdown
[Verse 3: Big Juan]
How you gon' lie about the place that you're from?
The house you grow up in, the block that you hung
Politics ain't my fortay
You gettin' fucked without the foreplay
Heaven trouble comin' through the doorway
G ain't playin' you dubs in the clubs
And heads ain't showin' you no love in the Hub
Spend time on the road, hotel's all alone
Not for Hillstreet times ain't no place like home
[Chorus x4: Guru]
I'ma get home, I'ma get there
make it back even if I'm caught outthere
[Verse 4: JaySon]
When I think of the Bean I think of the artist who
got fucked over by Maurice Starr and Larry Wu
I think I-L-B, fifteen years of R & B transmitted outside Dudley
Plus the Bumrush specially celebrities
aks Kane, Moe Dee, Mo Vaughn and Eric B.
Murdapan, Deathchester and Glocksbury
The weed's extra sticky, coke's extra heavy
"Boston"
[Verse 5:Big Shug]
It's the chin checkin', Chuck chokin' predator
Boston rap (Big Shug) Murdapan settler (huh)
I'm bettin' the stakes be high, when you die
Diss the crew, and lose the sight in you eyes
We multiply to bring the real on the track
Cross the line and there ain't no goin' back (fuckin' fag)
In fact, these niggas will rip ya ass apart
Bury that head in Franklin and your body in Hyde Park
[Chorus]
[G-Squared scratches]
"Boston"
"Boston"
"Representin' mass"
"Boston"
"Fuckin' Boston"
[Verse 6: G-Squared]
We make history daily
Represent Boston like Arabs and Israelis
Police tail me, backstabbers try to nail me
DJ's play me at the clubs past eleven
On 88.9, 94.5 and Hot97
Beantown's a cold city Dorchester gritty
Murdered over a fifty, hometown ain't it shifted
I travel the map but I always come back
To burn it down behind 24 tracks
[Verse 7: Krumb Snatcha]
Shoot outs fit niggas get twist in the Bean
Below the exploded magazine leave my head on the scene
Long time to Glocksbury twist your nine on the spot
Either you out to get this paper, or you work for the cops
My don stylo finally ya niggaz know how it go
Most hated at the back with the gats at the show
Quick to die with the stripes on squeezing like a python
Half the industry ya already dead before the mic's on
[Verse 8: Akrobatik]
My rapstyle's changed like Rodman's head
It's Akrobatik representin' Common Square (Hell yeah)
Where you can hop on the Red Line
and catch me at the Middle East
wippin' hoes close to headline
The winter's east Stone Cold like Steve Austin
But I promise my heart will never leave Boston
And that's the bottom line cause Akro say so
Intimidatin' with my pitch changed up like Pedro
[Chorus]
[Guru]
"Boston" Niggas be sleepin' on Boston for years
"Boston" I don't know what you thought
"Representin' mass" this ain't no fuckin' collegetown
Some real shit outhere on these streets
"Fuckin' Boston"
"Boston" Big up to my niggas
"Boston" XL
"Boston" Ed O.G.
"Boston" Big Juan
"Representin' mass" Jayson Big Shug
"Boston" G-Squared, Krumb Snatcha
"Fuckin' Boston" Akrobatik
"Boston" "Boston" Yeah, straight like that
"Boston" now big Guru
Niggas know, niggas better know
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
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
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
He’s never been to Sydney
I’ve never been to Rome
All things are came to nord ‘till now
I’ve been warning it’s home
Like to Rome or
And I’d like to know some girls
But the TV took my carriage
To dive and search for pearls
He never met a
I’ve never been to scope things
I allways like to be there
But never lock my home
Papers, rocks and radios
They never show me a way
I hitch for all the places
People poured their concrete floors
They built their churches and their walls
Painted pictures of their hopes, fears unbound
A Single look, a tiny touch, it changed the system that's enough.
And I can see it all in you love, in your eyes
Explode with life
Explode with life
Covered in your light
My home is where you are
And every beat and every beat
we're closer
My home is where you are
And every beat and every beat
We're closer
They fashion streets out of the rock
Struck up statues to their gods
And hung up flags on every corner they made.
We are charged, spoiling to go
Bring me back to where I'm from
A billion molecules are lined up in her heart
Pulsing with life
Pulsing with life
Pulsing with light
My home is where you are
And every beat and every beat
we're closer
My home is where you are
And every beat and every feet
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 road 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
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
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......
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...
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...
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?)
Say something, something that's better now
This is the only, the only way we know how
In these times we forget the truth
In these moments mark our headfall
Keep dreaming on
Don't wait up (wait up, wait up)
This is my fight for freedom
Full-heart, still pouring
And this will be the last one
The one that dreams are made of
Don't take this wrong
But I'm not coming home
In the end, we will find
The best's what's kept away with time
In the end, we will find
The best's what's kept away with time
Don't weigh it down
Don't wait up (wait up, wait up)
This is my fight for freedom
Full-heart, still pouring
And this will be the last one
The one that dreams are made of
Don't take this wrong
But I'm not coming home.
All we are has come
All we are has come
All we are has come
And all we are has come
And I'll take this fall, baby
I'm not coming home.
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 traveling 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 traveling 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 traveling shoes, without them I would surely die, die, die
Home, home
Home, home, home
Home, home
Home, home, home
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Where can I go?
Where can I hide, hide?
I'm home, home
Home, home, home
And I'm home, home
Home, home, home
And I'm miles away
Miles away
Sunday
In the morning
I’ve been Blinded by
Your light
God it’s so deep
It changed my mind
I feel free
Like a blue sky
All the bad days
And lonely cries
do you see it in my face
illuminated eyes
It’s been a while
It’s been a while
I feel at home
I feel at home with you
Monday
Lonesome evening
You’re inside of me
And i’m smiling
It’s a long ride
In the wrong way
I do it all the same
To be at your side
We are living in heaven
I have no doubt
My arms wide open
and my feet on the ground
I choosed this life
yes i signed the deal
But i feel like i’m looking
for something that i can’t find
A life without you
without love to feel
It’s like a day without sun
without time i mean
Some days you make me cry
It reminds me who i am
and this is why i call you my
Home
I feel at home
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
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
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
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 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
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
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...
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
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 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

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 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
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.
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.
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 grass bend into leaning
Suddenly the raindrops that fall have a meaning
Sprinklin' 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 has gone and changed its face
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
Yet I've watched it glowing
If you're listening God
Please don't make it hard to know
If we should believe in the things that we see
Tell us, should we try and stay
Or should we run away?
Or would it be better just to let things be?
Living here, in this brand new world
Might be a fantasy, oh...
But it taught me to love
So it's real, real, real to me
And I've learned
That we must look, look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours, like mine
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}
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...
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....
You're home, where secrets are told
See a new world unfolding
Where hearts are one, the pain's undone
And your finally belonging, yeah
And you need to know, you need to know
You're home, yeah
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.......
You're home, where secrets are told
See a new world unfolding
Where hearts are one, the pain's undone
And your finally belonging, yeah
And you need to know, you need to know
You're home, yeah
You need to know
All you really need to know is you're home
Welcome home
Everything's gonna be alright
'Cause you're home
Feel the sun, your day has come
You're not alone
When I think of home I think of a place where there's love overflowing
I wish I were home, I wish I was back here with the things I've been
Knowing.
And that makes the tall grass bend into leaning,
Suddenly the raindrops that fall have meaning.
Sprinkling the scene, makes it all clear.
Maybe there's a chance for me to go back,
Now that I, I have some direction.
It sure would be nice for me to go back home
Where there's love and affection.
And maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me the time I need in my life to grow up.
Time, be my friend, help me start again.
Suddenly the world's gonna change it's face
But still I, I'll know where I'm going.
And I have had my mind spread around in space
And yet I, I've watched it growing.
And I whisper, God, please, don't make it hard
To know the things we should believe.
Tell me, should we try instead, should we run away
Or is it better just to let things meet.
Living here, in this brand new world might be a fantasy
But it's thought me a lot, so it's real, it's real, it's real to me.
We must look inside our hearts to find
A world full of love, like yours, like mine.
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
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
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,
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!
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
Take me home
Send me on a ship
My life leaves me
Homesick
Home
I forget myself
Home
I can't let myself
Let myself go
Miss my baby bones
I know the way they felt
I've been aching
For mother's milk
Home
I forget myself
Home
I can't let myself
Let myself go
And I wanna be only bereft
And I wanna get smartest in my heart
Somebody to cut what I can't chew
Fill me up like it fills the room
Got my big girl
Body and shoes
Sometimes lately
Its hard to choose
Home (can't let myself go)
I forget myself
Home (can't let myself go)
I can't let myself go
Home (can't let myself go)
I forget myself
Home (can't let myself go)
I can't let myself
let myself
let myself
let myself
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)
(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
And more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever know
Are long ago and far behind, 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 it's way too late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy said
But 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
The straight and narrow path he showed me
Turned into a thousand winding roads
My footsteps carry me away
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
Fly over the mountain
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 smell of home in the breeze

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'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.
"Home" by Iggy Pop
from the Album "Brick by Brick"
(c) 1990
I work so hard, man, so don't trip
me up
shakin' a leg like that tail of 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; aget you at all?
stangers in paradise down at the
mall
home, boy
home, boy
everybody needs a home
home, boy
home, boy
everybody needs a home
home
home
everybody really needs a home
home home
everybody needs a home
the life we live is tricky tricky
i love my home, and my family
who's gonna love you when you
montain gets steep
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
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 whippoorwill's 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
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 whippoorwill's call
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
Home to my destiny dear
Home I can rest without fear
Home for the soul who has found he is half not whole
Home place where I find relaxion
Home for some natural action
Home from the cold and the glitter and that is not gold
At home by the fire
You only desire to
Go out and get in a stew
Could get you in trouble
Get home on the double
You're dreaming, your dream can come true
Where you knew it would right from the start
Please believe me
Home with its warren, its peace-time
Home with its famine and feast
Home last not least for the beauty within your beast
Where there is tranquility
Half happability
Yearning to let what may come come
In tender and loving care even the foul is fair
Let every road lead to Rome, not to ruin my
Homely home sweet home
Half have a mind to get my situation
Wholly owned and only consolation
Back to bed to habitate when
I get back home
My mind have been churnin
My feet have been burnin
My heart had been turnin to love
And he who laughs last you see, aint gotta laugh on me
And all that I'm speaking of
Please believe me
Is homely home sweet home
You just set your feet back on the ground
And turn around
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
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.
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.
I wish one day in my heart,
there is more than pleasure and pain ?
i'm 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!
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
how i wish that one day you'll be there
I see the morning moving over the hills
I can see the shadows on the western side
And all those illusions that I had
They just vanish in Your light
Though the chill in the night still hangs in the air
I can feel the warmth of morning on my face
Though the storm had tossed me
'Til I thought I'd nearly lost my way
And now the night is fading and the storm is past
And everything that could be shaken was shaken
And all that remains is all I ever really had
What I'd have settled for
You've blown so far away
What You brought me to
I thought I could not reach
And I came so close to giving up
But You never did give up on me
I see the morning moving over the hills
I feel the rush of life here where the darkness broke
And I am in You and You're in me
Here where the winds of Heaven blow
And now the night is fading
And the storm is through
And everything You sent to shake me
From my dreams they come to wake me
In the love I find in You
And now the morning comes
And everything that really matters
Become the wings You send to gather me
To my home
To my home
It's been one whole year exactly to the date
Where I gave it all up yeah I threw it away
But it's high time, my sights are set on you
I'd say my best comes from my worst of times
But as the critics choice I'll write my lines
But this just in the headline reads you've changed
I'll keep this short and discrete
So call me home cause I'll always be here
And you can always come home
When I think about the past year, past year
I knew you never had a chance
But you can always come home
Cause you've been cold like the winter and dark when it rains
But if this is what you wanted then its all the same
But I just wish you knew what I know now
But if I'm just lying tell me what is the truth?
Or does that just seem a bit hard to explain?
(Whoa oh, Whoa oh oh, Whoa, Whoa)
So call me home cause I'll always be here
And you can always come home
When I think about the past year, past year
I knew you never had a chance
But you can always come home
Yeah you can always come home
If I wrote you symphony would you be into me?
I'd write the words down to keep you around
At least for today
(Don't ask me Id rather just sit here and wonder)
(The way that we are, the way that we were)
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
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 to me, wavein at you. You're painting flowers on the ceiling, but you're looking through the leaves. And the cloudy sky to me. Im carrying our dreams across the sky. To another city where the future lyes, 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 lulaby.
(Chorus:)
What a dream we have to offer, what a try to make this all our own(Our own)To take this place, and make it home.
Im far away to night you feel it, but I'll creep in your room, tell him our plans and lights before us, and he'll do the same for me. Recount the history, of love and lost in lie, and giving up this crown of city lights. But he's content to shine and stay.
(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
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
Why is it, we have to run to understand
And why is it every time we grow close, we fall down
And why is it, I break my rules to let you in
Why is it, I act the fool, let you in, you in
Now my spinning head is slowly slowing down
At least my lonely bed is in my favorite town
Sometimes at night I feel heartbroken
And sometimes I just don't know what to say
Sometimes I make mistakes and I hurt you
But we're only human, we're all built that way
Yeah, I can say
Now my spinning head is slowly slowing down
At least my lonely bed is in my favorite town
Now my spinning head is slowly slowing down
At least my lonely bed is in my favorite town
Now my spinning head is slowly slowing down
At least my lonely bed is in my favorite town
Now my spinning head is slowly slowing down
At least my lonely bed is in my favorite town
Don't expect too much
You've nothing to prove
It's a hard old station
Hold onto the truth
Words together
Send them to you
Explain how I feel
I've seen enough to say that I know
That this old world is not my home
From lustful eyes and tainted lies, pride to hide the way that I
The way that I feel inside
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
I've seen enough to say that I know
That this old world is not my home
From lustful eyes and tainted lies and pride to hide
The way that I feel inside
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
Packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
Yes, I'm gonna run, I'm gonna run for my home
To stand in the sight of the Living God
That's where I'm longing to be
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
I am ready to go home
I'm packing my bags and I'm hitting the road
Hitting the road
Hitting the road
In a small town down in Georgia over forty years ago
Her maiden name was Musik till she met that Jackson boy
They married young like folks did then, not a penny to their name
They believe the one you vow to love should always stay the 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 tool shed
Granddaddy rolled down on two logs
And they built walls all around it
And they made that house a home
And they taught us 'bout good living
They taught us 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 pay 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 tool shed
Granddaddy rolled down on two logs
And they built walls all around it
And they made that house a home
And they taught us 'bout good living
They taught us right and wrong
Lord there'll never be another place
In this world I'll call home
No there'll never be another place
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
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
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
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
You say hello, I smile slow, it turns me inside out.
You say goodbye, I say that I'll be right behind you.
And everybody shows that everybody knows;
Everybody lives to feel alive; and to feel it like the
First time.
[Chorus]
If you wanna go, if you wanna stay,
If you wanna run around the world we can leave today;
I just wanna go to a place of our own.
If you wanna go, if you wanna stay,
If you gotta run around the world and come back to me,
I just wanna know this is where we belong.
It's all beginning to feel like home.
You say hello, you said you know this world
Will let you down.
You say goodbye, you're coming to find me
Here to catch you.
And everybody shows that everybody knows;
Everybody lives to feel alive; and to feel it like the
First time.
[Chorus]
And every breath is a choice that you gotta make.
When you're falling apart at the seams with
Everyday you wait.
And you're gonna regret every chance that you
Never take; and every second you let slip away.
You say hello, I smile slow, it turns me inside out.
[Chorus]
You're beginning to feel like home.
(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
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 ---
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
It seems a hundred years have passed me
Alone on the road
It's been forever since I had a
Place of my own
I've spent a thousand lifetimes
Searching for mine
It's been so hard to find
And it feels like I'm home
It's been a long road alone
And it feels like I'm free
It's been a long way to me
Now that the fight is fought and won
Now that the words are said and done
I see the fire inside
When I look into your eyes
And it feels like I'm home
It's been a long road alone
And it feels like I'm free
It's been a long way to me
I roam far and wide
I didn't know if I'd live or die
I searched night and day
To find my way
And it feels like I'm home
It's been a long road alone
And it feels like I'm free
It's been a long way to me
And it feels like I'm home
It's been a long road alone
And it feels like I'm free
(feat. Phil Collins)
[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]
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...
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
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,
Walking down the familiar hill,
Bare feet barely touching the dampground.
There is no light.
There is no sound.
There's only emptiness all around
A movement.
A face.
Familiar still,
But only a mask of her former self.
Darkness longing to hug him close,
Like lover's arms lost long ago.
And in the void,
He hears his name,
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
In these vigilant times I daydream-an innocuous crime
My motionless stance-in my mind, I wander the land
A bleak, dismal trance
Constrained, unsafe, left in shame
And now I can see my town is painted red
Here forever I'll be where once my tears were she'd
On that day, in our place I recall the smell of the rain
And I'd protect you from them if you want me to take.
Take you there again
Good night my love, let me watch you sleep from here or above
Words like these won't leave this place
Be haunted by our trace, the trace of our... home
The home they want call their own
But for the air that I breathe, the dreams are divine
The memories I'll bring to a place for from home
I'm trapped without guards, within a scare I can't Grasp
But we're still free
The home they want to call province of rome
Scared to move, scared to wake, scared just to be who we were
What matters is just you and me and the path that leads us...
Encircled by fiends, the pressure deepens dazed by illusions,
My reason weakens but I won't let you fall into deep forlornness
I won't let you ponder the why in distress
A mechanical smile as I lift my face towards the sun
And return to denial
I weep as I kiss the ground, the trees that I'll soon miss
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.
California is a great big nation of one
They never knew what they wanted til it was already gone
What do they do with the light in the morning when they wake up alone?
They just go home
They just go home
Youre the nicest, nicest boy Ive ever met
and then
I think about you then I think about you again
And again
Why dont we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while
I like the way you smile
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesnt get better than home, now does it?
Doesnt get better than home, now does it? (x3)
I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet and I could be sweeter
I want to be where your heart is home (x3)
I want to see you with the light in the morning
Theres never been such a beautiful warning to me, to me
Why dont we just sit and stare and do nothing?
Nothing at all for a while, I like the way you smile
I could be your state and I could be your nation
It doesnt get better than home, now does it?
Doesnt get better than home, now does it? (x3)
I could be your welcome, I could be your greeter
I could be sweet and I could be sweeter
I want to be where your heart is home (x3)
Here is a song from the wrong side of town
Where I'm bound to the ground by the loneliest sound
And it 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
Well 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
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
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
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 tryin' is the only way to know
And I wanna come back home
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
It ain't home, yes please believe me
Don't give up 'cause we're half way there
We're at the crossroads in the middle
Between hope and between despair
All I need is some direction
Let me know you'll wait for me
Where you are is where I'll be
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
Don't get me wrong
I'm feeling okay
But when I'm without you
It's just not the same
Don't misunderstand me
I'm feeling alright
But when I'm without you
The day turns into night
Into night
I dream of a future
A possible place
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
I'm with you
No longer alone
When I'm with you
Feels like I'm home
And you are with me
No longer alone
How can it be?
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
Here by myself
But I know I'm not alone
I'm not alone
I look through the brightness
Into the sky
The sun up above me
Spitting out fire
Call me a child
Call me naive
The world is much brighter
Than it ever used to be
Used to be
I'm with you
No longer alone
When I'm with you
Feels like I'm home
And you are with me
No longer alone
How can it be?
Feels like I'm home
Feels like I'm home
Feels like I'm home
Feels like I'm home
Rolling down the road
Going no where, guitar packed in the trunk
Somewhere around mile marker 112
Papa started humming the funk
I gotta Jones in my bones
Before I know, we be singing this melody
Stop the car, pull out the guitar
Halfway to New Orleans
Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Could feel sun about to rise
When I realized we had nothing to fear
Just me and my daddy and a kid named Cole
Playing music that nobody could hear
And then the sun let up and it split the night
Spilling over our jubilee
10,000 cars by the side of the road
Grooving far as the eye can see
Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, 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, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Here we go
Hot damn you should've 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 loose control
My daddy turned his face up towards the sky
And I knew that there was nothing to loose
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes
And we disappeared into the groove
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
You don't know nothing about this
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home
Said take me home
Take me home
Said take me home
Said take me home
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
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
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
Home is where you go
When you're feeling low
Mum will wash your clothes
Tell you how you've grown
Home
Can't sleep in too late
Bed's got to be made
Breakfast table's laid
Eat you'll waste away
Home
Fall right back into the family embrace
All smiles and good times, well for the first few days
Then you can't wait to go
Home
Home is where you go
When you need to know
Wherever you roam
You can always go
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
The little boy is moving down the street of no return
He says I'd like to see the city of the narrowminded burn
This place is like a prison now let me approve
The world is closing in it's getting harder to move
People pass by on the street
They look down but I swear
Their eyes are irongrey
II sure felt rejected and judged
And I sure felt betrayed
Your laws, your moral, your ethics and your sins
Everything comes back to where it all begins
Oxblood boots, motorcycle jacket, broken heart and a fist
I'm leving for the place where the hospitality is
I wanna move cuz
This place ain't my home
A lifetime's a pretty long time
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, you gotta pick it up again
Things can't always hang together
'Cause 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
And this ain't gonna be forever
'Cause 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
(If there was 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 and your views
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
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
silver hair, tired feet, walking the world every day
When the summer nights have gone
I'm on my own again,
The winter days begun
My mind is on the run
No sight of you again
And now the leaves are falling
The short dark days are calling
You'll be going home
As the summer sun draws close to fade
It's cold while I sleep
And now the leaves are falling
The short dark days are calling
You'll be going home
All the flowers are closing
The thoughts of you unfolding
You'll be flying home
You'll be flying home
Home
You'll be flying home
Home
My life's gone away
It's cold where you laid
My life's gone away
It's cold where you laid
My life's gone away
It's cold while I sleep
*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
She said I'm doing alright,
I just thought I'd check in,
Ya know it's been such a long time,
Where do I begin?
I've thought about you,
A thousand times in the past,
And you've lived in my memory
And the moments that last.
And as the clock ticked
And you brought me to speed,
My mind started racing
I wondered where it would lead.
From a touch to a whisper
To a quick stolen kiss.
We got lost in the memories
And got lost in the bliss
It's so good to be back home.
You've always been my home.
Well I'm feeling alright.
So I'm writing this down
As you sit by the window
With your sunshining crown
I'm gonna give you
A little piece of my soul
With all the shameless cliche's
I hope you won't let it go.
There will come a time
When we look back upon this
As a smile crosses your lips
I know you're taking it in
And in the meantime,
I hope you're feeling this in you.
And it's growing within you
Until you can't hold it in.
It's so good to be back home.
You've always been my home.
And time can't erase the scars that can't disappear
But as I lay here beside you,
I forgot they were there.
So we'll get through tomorrow and whatever happens then,
Because I know I can go home again.
It's so good to be back home.
You've always been my home.
It's so good to be back home.
If we gotta go, then let’s go now
If we gotta go, then let’s go down
You’re in the dirt, what’s gone wrong?
It’s gonna hurt, but not for long
No, not for long…
No, not for long…
Home
You gotta fight your own
Bag of bones
No, no
You’re not on your own
We don’t sleep alone
We don’t sleep alone
Everyday feels like minutes long
So, a good nights rest is a whole year gone
But, all I’ve seen, and all I’ve done
I wouldn’t trade it, no, not for minute one
Not for minute one…
Not for minute one…
Home
You gotta fight your own
Bag of bones
No, no
You’re not on your own
We don’t sleep alone
We don’t sleep alone
There’s no place like…
Now you’re on your own, Now you’re on your own
It’s where your head lies…
Like you’ve always know, like you’ve always know
When you cant sleep at night
You’re all alone, You’re all alone
There’s no place like…
There’s no place like…
I’m not gonna go…
Home
You gotta fight your own
Bag of bones
Bag of bones
No, no
You’re not on your own
Not on your own
We don’t sleep alone
We don’t sleep alone
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 runnin' all the way back home
But nothing's gonna save your soul
You'll be runnin' all the way back home, home
We can't always make things better
When it comes around you gotta nail it down
And this ain't gonna be forever
'Cos nobody knows, so let's give it a go
Home, you'll be runnin' all the way back home
But nothing's gonna save your soul
You'll be runnin' all the way back home, home
If there was some way to manage this space between us
(There was some way to manage this space between us)
I find it hard to reach
Home, you'll be runnin' 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 runnin' 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
Here I come to find myself, catch the tide
Looking for a peace at the end of the line
Sometimes I can't help myself feel the tide
I'm all at sea and so unwise
I'm so afraid I'd lose your love as time goes by
But courage is a fire and a beacon so bright
The sunset builds a memory - our love signed
And all I see becomes a lie
Will I wash away, turning like a stone?
I need a place where I belong
Call the setting sun to throw me down the road
And take me to a place called home!
I close my eyes, I know you're there, love of mine
Standing on the shore in a world I designed
The sunset fires a lonely flare into the sky
And all I see we say goodbye
Will I wash away, turning like a stone?
I need a place where I belong
Call the setting sun to throw me down the road
And take me to a place called home!
Follow the light into the sun
Leading me back where I belong
I was a fool fading away
When autumn was brown, winter was grey
I'm coming home
I'm coming home today
Home
Where the flowers grow
A place for us to go
Where I don't feel alone
When I go away
I will always come back home
The city was cool
The buildings were nice
The distance was cruel, colder than ice
I'm running up the merciful road
Leading me to your open door
I'm coming home
I'm coming home, ... to stay
Home
Where the flowers grow
A place for us to go
Where I don't feel alone
When I go away
I will always come back home
Come back home
(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
Hey, where are you tonight?
My radio won't tune just out of spite

The scent of your skin it moves these lips to speak "I love you"

Home
I love the wind, I love the sea
it's calling me, I get this special feeling
spray in my face, the smell of salt is all around me
I'm far away, everyday life has lost its meaning
No time to loose, believe
there is no time to loose
I have to leave now
I'm coming home, home
When the wind blows
I change and feel so much freedom deep inside me
When the wind calls
I'm home, I free myself, I'm back so follow
And lonelyness is my companion, water whispers
take off your clothes and come inside
let's have a cry down on my shoulder
and so we wash away your sin
become a new man
No time to loose, believe
there is no time to loose
I have to leave now
I'm coming home, home
When the wind blows
I change and feel so much freedom deep inside me
When the wind calls
My little boy
Bow your head in shame
You've disgraced your Father's name now
It's time you choose
Your little toys
Won't save you from shot ten
Without me you will not win no
I swear you'll lose
Wisdom comes through suffering
Tell me why'd you let him give you a cheap name?
It's time to come home
Play time's over now
You're nowhere near
The teachings of Martin Luther King
Did you forget all about his dream now?
It's time you choose
God's hand was there
Think back to when you were down it's so clear
It's time that we do what is right here
There's no excuse
There's no excuse
It's my world
Son it's my world
It's not your world
I tried peace
I tried love
I tried kind
I give up
You don't hear
You don't feel
Now I'm here
And I'm real
I gave you My blessings
You failed from my testings
I'll show you what death brings
Now feel how my wrath stings
God told me
That we are bound to die
For living this way
God saved me
So I must teach what's right
So you see
It's my world
It's my plan
It's my sea
It's my land
It's my moon
They're my stars
You're my mind
You're my heart
What's your choice?
What's your role?
You're my life
You're my soul
You're my son
You're my seed
We're one love
Thinking back when we first met
I remember what you said
You said youd never leave me, yeah
I let go a while of you hand
Built my castle in the sand
But now Im reaching out again
And Im not letting you go till you
Hold me, mold me
Sometimes I feel so all alone, hmm
See I gotta find my way back home
So why dont 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 wanna be the clay
Hmm put your arms around me, yeah
Place my life in your hands
Lord I know Im just a man
Know you understand
This time Im not letting go, till you
Anoint me, appoint me
Sometimes I feel so all alone, oh
See I gotta find my way back home
So why dont you
Chastise me, baptize me
Wash me whiter than the snow
I gotta find my way
Cause Im lost and alone
Ive been wandering long enough to know
Humbly I search for you
And Im not gonna rest till you
Choose me, use me
Sometimes I feel so all alone
Im am on my way back home
So why dont you
Direct me, bless me
Wash me whiter than the snow
So many things have changed in my short life
That I thought would always be there
Yet when all that passes by my eyes none of it
Will come as a big surprise, I'm expecting it
To tell the truth I know that when my eyes are closed
And shut again I'll be happy that way
Cause if I don't know where I'm going
If I don't know where I've been
Maybe you can show me now
Can you tell me how
I'm going home
When I'm too small to see it all, I hold on tight so I won't fall
And lose myself Cause if I don't know where tomorrow is how can I
Tell where today has been and when I'm going
I'm going home
Something looking like a mail order wolverine
Just nodded it's head at me
Shout 'bout the looks and sounds that I've heard and seen
Mad about the fact I'm free from his multiheaded smile that
He is shining on, rising in the face of man, holding back everything
He is holding while I'm smiling at him I'm free from him
Home I wish I was homeward bound
If I had sight and I could feel would that finally make me real
Or can you answer that to me, you won't fall behind me anyway
So I've gotta' watch you every day so I don't join you today
I gotta get home, there's a garden to tend
All the fruit's on the ground
And the birds have all moved back into my attic whistling static
When the young learn to fly I will patch all the holes up again
Well, I can't believe that my lime tree is dead
I thought it was sleeping, I guess it got fed up with not being fed
And I would be too I need food in my belly
And hope that my time isn't soon, isn't soon
So I try to understand what I can't hold in my hand
And whatever I find, I'll find my way back to you
And if you could try to find it too
'Cause this place has overgrown into waxing mood
Home is wherever we are if there's love there too
In the back of our house there's a trail that won't end
We were walking so far that it grew back in
Now there's no trail at all, only grass growing tall
Get out my machete and battle with time once again
But I'm 'bout to lose 'cause I'll be damned if time don't win
I gotta get home there's a garden to tend
All the seeds from the fruit buried and began
Their own family trees, teach them thank you and please
As they spread their own roots then watch the young fruit grow again
This old trail will lead me right back to where it begins
So I try to understand what I can't hold in my hand
And whatever I find, I'll find my way back to you
And if you could try to find it too
'Cause this place has overgrown into waxing mood
[Intro:]
We are all running in a race
To find everything that you searching for is right there
[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home
[Verse 1:]
Who can you trust when you can't trust yourself
So I made a vow, in my faith only you I'll follow
[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home
[Verse 2:]
I'm not worthy, never could be that, I know
But somehow in spite of me you're always there to hold
[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
The lights are shining, I'm already home
[Bridge:]
I can be a mess, I'm reckless & it shows
But with you I close my eyes and let you take control
Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn
[Chorus:]
Your love is blinding, I'm already home
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
The crowded room is full of empty faces
The deepest convesation full of lies
Another night with all my friends
The kind you never see again
I wonder if they'll seethrough my disguise
And I want to say
And I can't hold back
And I might be wrong
But it's all I have
Come take me home tonight
Come take me home
Oh I need you now
I'm lost without you
A million miles
But I will find you
So take me home
It's 3 A.M. and I can't sleep without you
I think I found the perfect words to say
Satellite transmits my voice
Sometimes we don't have a choice
I wake you up from half a world away
And I try so hard
Try to be so strong
But you see the cracks
My defenses gone
Come take me home tonight
Come take me home
Oh I need you now
I'm lost without you
A million miles
But I will find you
So take me home
Come take me home tonight
Come take me home
Come take me home tonight
Come take me home
Satellite transmits my voice
Sometimes we don't have a choice
I wake you up from half a world away
Oh I need you now
I'm lost without you
I'm holding on
Till I can find you
Into Your courts I'll run with
Praises flowing from my heart
Every day I wake I sing Your song
It's the anthem of my life
I wanna spend my days in Your presence Lord
Bowed before Your throne
In the house of God is where I've found my peace
It's where I've found 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 we'll be, where we'll be
Your love is all I need
So desperately I have sung Your fame
I know You hear my every cry
The petition that I make, yeah
I wanna spend my days in Your presence Lord
Bowed before Your throne
In the house of God is where I've found my peace
It's where I've found 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 we'll be, where we'll be
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 we'll be, where we'll be
Jesus, oh You are my treasure
Jesus, oh You are my treasure
Jesus, oh You are my treasure
Jesus, oh Lord You are my treasure
I wanna spend my days in Your presence Lord
Bowed before Your throne
In the house of God is where I've found my peace
It's where I've found 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 we'll be, where we'll be
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
West, on a plane bound west
I see her stretchin' out below
Land, blessed Mother Land
The place where I was born
Scars, yeah she's got her scars
Sometimes it starts to worry me,
'Cause lose, I don't wanna 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
But this is still the place
That we all call home
Free, nothin' 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
But this is still the place
That we all call home.
Brave, gotta call it brave
To chase that dream across the sea.
Name, then they signed their names
For something they believed
Red, how the blood ran red
We laid our dead in sacred ground
Just think, wonder what they'd think
If they could see us now
It's been a long hard ride,
Got a ways to go
But 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
If I woke up one morning with my memory gone
I'd pick out some clothes and I'd put 'em on
And I'd walk down the street, and find a cafe
And 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
I'd be drowning in memory, and then I would know
How it used to be in summer, so many years ago
When we really didn't worry, or care to know
Where we would be, or how old we had grown
Then I'd open my eyes and I know I was
Home, where my friends are
Even when I'm not, I wish you were here
Then it would rain, like it sometimes does
And if we were bored, it wouldn't bother us
We'd just get in the car and drive through the night
And be lost in East Texas, but no one would mind
'Cause we'd find our way home like we always do
Funny how the time flies in our youth
But with darkness approaching, we will 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'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
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
I ain't never going home
'Cause I'm having a good time
I ain't never going home
'Cause my time has 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 'til the springtime
Is breathing at my door
The wilderness before me
Heeds the lion's 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 'til 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 knees
Bringing the world to its feet
I ain't never going home
Wish I were with you but 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 the cold and the pain
Someone to cover, safe from the rain
And 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
And all I want is to be home
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
Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone, I 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??
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 airplane, another sunny place
I?m lucky I know but I wanna go home
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
This was not your dream
But you always believed in me
Another winter day
Has come and gone away
In 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 and I wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
Let me go home
I?ve had my run
Baby, I?m done
I'm coming back home
Let me go home
It will all be all right
I?ll be home tonight
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
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
Just wanna go home
I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
So you asked, so I'm going
Here I am, never knowing
Where this horizon ends, and the next road begins
Or where I'll find you
It's getting dark and I'm a long way from home
But I can't stand spending this night alone
And I will sleep, my eyes to the east
And wait for the sun to come, home
I've gone to walkabout to find your face
The land I love, don't look the same
Look the same
So cover me like a blanket in the cold
You have given me this hand to hold
To help me up
'Cause I fall down
It's getting dark, and I'm a long way from home
But I will not spend this night alone.
I will sleep with my eyes to the east
And wait for the sun to come, home.
It feels something like I'm chasing the wind
I feel like this road has no end
But the end is you I know
Well thanks for coming to dinner
And yeah I'm glad we're friends
But honestly I'm not ready
For this evening to end
It's only 10 o'clock
And I don't feel much tired at all
When I get a taste of something
I always want some more
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
So how about a cup of coffee
Or we could get a snack
Or if you're heading uptown
Maybe we could share a cab
I don't wanna be rude
Don't mean to be obscene
It's just that I feel so much better
When you're next to me
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
I want to take you home
And I could live without you
I could live without you
I could live without you
I just don't want to
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
Just an hour and we'll be home
With my family that i chose
You're my family
And on the pavement still gripping the phone
You came and wrapped your arms around my soul
And we were shaking and you're so much a part of me
And so this is why i'm here
When we called you
You came so fast
And sat beside me while hours and days past
I'll always thank you for that
And there you were
With your heart made of gold
So strong, the only thing holding us up
And we knew you would always be so close
And so this is why i'm here
And then there was you
You always made us laugh
And you would help us to find the right path
And there is no one as full of life
God is gorgeous in the city
And what's my home like now
In a room where we share a pillow
And lights in the windowsill
And you let me lay my burdens down
Here take my bed lay your head on my lap again
Let me sing to your soul
Cause where you go is where I'll be home
Have I seen you in my audience
Have I past you in my car
When I open my lips to sing
Like an air closing back to me
And I let you lay your burdens down
Here take my bed lay your head on my lap again
Let me sing to your soul
Cause where you go you go
This second story's lonely
Only the headlights
Hear me harmonizing with the sirens
I want you read me like my diary
Dont even know your name
My home
God is gorgeous in the city
How many times can my heart be killed
Before it dies never to return forever
How many times can I part with love
Before I turn into stone to survive it better
Before I turn into stone to survive it bitter
I need to go home
I need to go home now
I need to go home
I need to go home now
How many nights must I dream of this
Before I know I'm not better off without you
How many lifes did we restore in one kiss
But we let it grow strong enough to have a breakthrough
I'm about to turn into stone to survive it better
I need to go home
I need to go home now
I need to go home
That night the walls were speaking
the pipes inside them, creaking,
told the secret that was rising in the halls
And you lay beside me sleeping
with the dreams that you were keeping
the smoke was in the stairwell outside the wall
We had moved in just November
the first night, remember,
we lit a candle
laid a mattress on the floor
and we toasted to our savings,
to adulthood,
to behaving,
to this house with drafty windows
creaking doors
(chorus)
Home
is the woman across the table
Home
is dreaming in my sheets
Home
Home
This house is just an address
You're my home
So we stood like statues staring
while the sirens came in blaring
the Johnsons brought us coffee
for the cold
And somewhere I heard some singing
it was my radio alarm clock ringing
with a wakeup call singing to my soul
(chorus)
I can't believe I'm thanking Jesus
as I watch my roof come down
but I can put back all the pieces
as long as you're around
The dimming of the light makes the picture clearer
It’s just an old photograph, there’s nothing to hide
When the world was just beginning.
I memorized her face so it’s not forgotten
I hear the wind whistle in, come back anytime
And we’ll mix our lives together
Heaven knows, what keeps mankind alive
Every hand goes searching for its partner in crime
Under chairs and behind tables
Connecting to places we have known
I’m looking for a home, where the wheels are turning
Home, why I keep returning
Home, where my world Is breaking in two.
Home, with the neighbors fighting
Home, always so exciting
Home, were my parents telling the truth?
Home, such a body feeling
Home, no one ever speaking
Home, with our bodies touching
Home, and the cameras watching
Home, will infect whatever you do
Where home, comes to life from out of the blue
Tiny little box from a beach at sunset
I took a drink from a jar and into my head
Familiar smells and flavours
Vehicles are stuck on the plains of heaven
I’ve seen their wheels spinnin round
And everywhere I can hear those people saying
That the eye is the measure of the man
You can fly from the stuff that spills around you
We’re home and the band keeps marching on
Connecting to every living sole
I found a home right here. I'm never alone right here.
it's a place
I can always be myself, where we are me and you.
it's not a room at the top but it's more than just a room
with a view
I feel alive and I'm living my way--this is my dream and
you're a part of it.
I've had this feeling from the start of it.
that we would somehow find a groove to call our own.
I wouldn't change for anything some measure success in
dollars and cents, that makes no sense to me.
I've got these friends on my side and that's all that I
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
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,
After all that he said, after all that he done
What can make you believe that he's still the one
Why'd you hide from the truth, when you break down and cry
There's a reason you stay, I just don't know why
Would be better off walking away from this
And you won't be alone
When there's nowhere to run, when you're hurting inside
When you can't carry on, just know there's a place you can hide
Don't you be so afraid of the things he would say
I would stay by your side baby if you leave, let it go
You're gonna find your way home!
I remember that girl, her laugh and her smile
She ain't gone but she's been away for a while
No I find it hard to watch and take that away
But there's only so much that I can, can take
You know you deserve so much more than this
How can I make you feel?
When there's nowhere to run, when you're hurting inside
When you can't carry on, just know there's a place you can hide
Don't you be so afraid of the things he would say
I would stay by your side baby if you leave, let it go
You're gonna find your way home!
You should know you deserve so much more
(so much more)
So let me take you away
(let me take you away)
When there's nowhere to run, when you're hurting inside
When you can't carry on, just know there's a place you can hide
Don't you be so afraid of the things he would say
I would stay by your side baby if you leave, let it go
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,
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
Donne, l?impression d?un pêtit bon homme
Si tes raisons sont bonnes, come on
Prends ton temps et le mien, car j?y tiens
Prends, la vitesse d?un vrai hurragan
L?altitude de quelqu?un qui connait son coeur
Car en somme, c?etait fun
J?ai plus peur, homme
Homme sauvage
Homme, ta cage j?abandonne
Homme, ments, puisque savoir mentir c?est un don
Donne moi un baiser sur le front puis ments
Ments encore, mi corazon
Je te pardonne, Sents, Finalement le son de mes mots
Éphemere comme le temps, t?a ratrappé
Écouter aussi c?est un don
Shouting down an answer phone
a thousand miles from you
why's the world a combat zone
that I'm a stranger to?
And I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
tell me how I find my way back home
Absence makes the heart grow cold
no matter what they say
especially when the one you want
is half the world away
And I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
someone tell me how I get back home
Home, I don't know where you could be
Look for you in mountains of oceans across the sea
Though we live under the same moon
Catch you in the glimmer of my spoon
Could you be where love raised his head
Where my youth was gallantly led
And where the sun took a holiday
Fell in love, decided to stay
I'm so tired and down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, 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 the're no trees but wolves run wild
Maybe somewhere I've never seen
Tangier's or the banks of Berlin
Strangers they can veil a friendly eye
Rather be with you than a lie
I'm so tired and down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, 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'll be the one
Home, is where my heart is
Home, is where my heart is
Home, is where my heart is
Better days will never be (x3)
What does this mean
It means
We get the best scene
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 (x3)
Better days will never be
Home sweet home
Home, home
Let's talk politics
Every dog has its day
For me
I don't believe
Better days ahead
Will never be
I don't believe in anything
(nuclear day)
Better days will never be (x3)
Spare no man
Match bomb for bomb
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 everything, from lust to dust)
No weak pity
(no charity, no weak pity)
From lust to dust
(all is fair in war)
I'll move it out into the light
I just can't leave it alone
I'm somewhere in America
And you're asleep at home
Take it out over the edge
Watch it sinking like a stone
There's snow on the ground in Canada
And you're asleep at home
I'm only a spark in the fire
I'm only a voice on the air
I'm wide awake in Hollywood
But I could be anywhere
I'll move it out into the light
I just can't leave this thing alone
I'm somewhere in America
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 judgments 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 yeah
You can always go home
It's time to go home, ooh yeah
Yeah, yeah
No questions asked
No judgments passed
Now where have you been?
It's nice to see you
Welcome back
Oh yes, you're finally home, ooh yeah
If you want shelter from the storm
Somewhere we feel safe and warm
Then you know, I know, you know
Hear my heart, beat so silently
There is air enough for me to breathe
Found a calmness in my worried soul
A faith I´ve never known
All the lights, have been blinding me
Shining so bright, so I couldn´t see
That all I wanted, and all I ever need
Is right in front of me
I never thought a love would be this safe
Feeling all the strength in your embrace
You´re my heart, my soul, my everything -
The place that I call Home
When my sorrow is too hard to bear
And the roads I walk are leading me nowhere
Then you appear ? like an answered prayer
Showing me the way
Chorus
Be my heart, my soul, be my everything
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
This is home, home
And this is home, home
This is home
I found your 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
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
I'm going crazy
A little everyday
And everything I wanted
Is now driving me away
I woke this morning
To the sound of breaking hearts
Mine is full of questions
The funniest girl I ever knew
Had hair as orange as Halloween
The bluest eyes that saw right through
All the BS and everything
She was an artist from the start
And she always sang from the bottom of her heart
And though her road was so long
She finally made her way back home
Yes, she finally made her way back home
The loneliest kid I ever saw
Owned to an old man's calloused hands
Sitting barefoot in front of a dime-store
In a place some called, 'The Promised Land'
He had hollow sunken eyes
But he was smiling big like he'd won some kinda prize
He was ragged, he was rolling like a stone
In the dirty city streets that he called home
Yeah, the dirty city streets that he called home
Hobos, tramps and troubadours
Don't ride in box cars like they did before
Seems like most of my heroes
Just ain't around no more
Yeah, I know I'm lucky to sing my songs
If you want to, you can sing along
As you been on this road so long
Won't you help me find my way back home?
Help me find my way back home
Won't you help me find my way back 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
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
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
She lays a trail of blood to help me find my way
She speaks ever so softly as I fade away
She wears her heart on her sleeve,
But I’m still not…
Home.
Blood, broken
Withered, in chains
Blood, broken
Withered, in chains
I’ve been straying away from life and now it’s gone
The change came too slowly for you to see
Living above the crowd,
Staring up at the clouds,
I’m never coming back
And she loves me
And she feeds me
And she helps me
She takes me home
Blood, broken
Withered, in chains
Blood, broken
Withered, in chains
Living above the crowd,
Staring up at the clouds,
I’m never coming back
And she loves me
And she feeds me
And she helps me
She takes me home
Fuck!
Living above the crowd,
Staring up at the clouds,
I’m never coming back
She keeps me awake,
Pry my eyes out so I can see
So I can feel, so I can understand
This fucking pain could disappear
She eats my life away, I watch my body decay
Swallowing self-suppressive years
She keeps me awake,
Pry my eyes out so I can see
So I can feel, so I can understand
This fucking pain could disappear
She eats my life away, I watch my body decay
Swallowing self-suppressive years
My sadistic child, oh misery,
Maybe one day I’ll get home…
And she loved me
And she fed me
And she helped me
And she left me!
I'm wanted again
I thought you knew
Cause you're a friend
I was not supposed to be there
But I had to take a stand
I'm wanted again
It's not because of who I am
Or all the things I once believed in
We are vanishing again
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I gotta see you tomorrow
Oh I don't know how to givin' take it all
It is a mess and
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I got a right to know
Take the last few things that you have
And we'll call it home
I'm wanted again
I don't know how
I don't know when
But in the end it comes and takes you
To a place you've never been
I'm wanted again
I don't know why I should pretend
After all these years of running
I can't tell you who I am
I just realised...
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I gotta see you tomorrow
Oh I don't know how to givin' take it all
It is a mess and
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I got a right to know
Take the last few things that you have
And we'll call it home(we call it home)
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I gotta see you tomorrow
Oh I don't know how to givin' take it all
And this is a mess and
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I got a right to know
Take the last few things that you have...
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I gotta see you tomorrow
Oh I don't know how to givin' take it all
It is a mess and
Oh I don't know what to do and I say
I got a right to know
Take the last few things that you have and we call it home
Yeah we call it home
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
You were faster than me.
You were better than me.
I was too careful and weak.
It had to be you.
And I pushed myself beyond the resolve
just so I could try to make you relive it.
But you were faster than me.
You were better than me.
I was too careful and weak.
It had to be you.
Take me home.
In my dream you said that you loved me.
I am your perfect.
Of course I'm a child.
Only we have the capacity
to stand in single file and blindly follow you.
Of course I'm a child.
Only we have the capacity
to stand in single file, regardless of the truth.
Take me home.
In my dream you said that you loved me.
Chorus:
I knew home
alive, alone
you have been
away instead
everything must go
everyone I know
has to turn it on
I can make it

Alone I look for the way
hoping you’re waiting for me
where the hostile world has no say
that is where I always want to be.
Where my eyes want to follow
when I’m far away,
when life brings sorrow,
into silence I escape.
Among the stars
there is a place
to where my heart
always returns.
Alone I look for the way
hoping you’re waiting for me
where the hostile world has no say
that is where I always want to be.
Where my rush of thoughts
in oblivion drowns
to forget the evil lot
I will sleep in safe arms.
Among the stars
there is a place
to where my heart
always returns.
There I always have some time
to heal every wound,
to help the life’s shine
long forgotten, return.
There is such a place,
my own little space,
after each lost battle
its power remains.
There I always have some time
to heal every wound,
to help the life’s shine
long forgotten, return.
There is such a place,
my own little space,
after each lost battle
its power remains.
Among the stars
there is a place
to where my heart
always returns.
There is always some room
Breakin it down again
I don't need conversations
I've been working it out in my head
I can't find consolations
I'm tired of the sound of love breaking up in me
I'm sick of hearing words that mean nothing
No, I won't be coming home
Can't say we didn't try
No, we can't just carry on
Cause I hate the words "good bye"
No, I won't be coming home
So I begin again
Maybe this time I'll listen
I've been shaking it off my hands
Want the life I've been missing
I'm tired of the sound of love breaking up in me
I'm sick of hearing words that mean nothing
No, nothing cause
No, I won't be coming home
Can't say we didn't try
No, we can't just carry on
Cause I hate the words "good bye"
No, I won't be coming home
Save me from all the sins that I have been
Blame me that we are at the end
No, I won't be coming home
It's breakin down
It's breakin down now
No, we can't just carry on
Cause I hate the words "good bye"
I miss the leaves from trees I haven't seen in fifteen years
Marry themselves to that September scent I used to know so well
I run a thumb against the grain, my left cheek I haven't shaved in three or four days at this point
Massachusetts feels so strange right now
And I stand recalling when the carnival brought mystery and flames
To all three stoplights wide eyed children hold tight some others hands
And now as darkness ends I wish that I'd dress warmer but I guess there's just some lessons I can't learn
So now I'm cold again, alright
Close my eyes, and watch the colors change
And It's not that I don't want to wait it's just that I can't bear to change
Where-ever I go I'm wandering lost
Simple truths and circumstance, things that aren't about romance
Where-ever I go this still feels like home to me now
Then summer came and went we all were battered by the sense that we could not keep holding on
I woke up and it was fall, and I had traveled to the ocean
I’d been baptized by the fire, that kept on been burning in New England
And would never let me sleep at night
Close my eyes, and watch the colors change
And it's not that I don't want to wait it's just that I can't bear to change
Wherever I go I'm wandering lost
Simple truths and circumstance, things that aren't about romance
Where-ever I go this still feels like home to me now
And I said I'd run 'til I'm standing in a cold driving rain
That don't need no one else 'cause I can hurt myself
I'm waiting on salvation that I haven't earned
I am fine, I am fine, this could be so much worse
And it's not that I don't want to wait it's just that I can't bear to change
Where-ever I go I'm wandering lost
Simple truths and circumstance, things that aren't about romance
Warm skies, the stars are listening
Country night sings her song
Fireflies light the distance
Making me want to sing along
I had it all right at home
And the memories call
Calling me home
Bet 'cha daddy's old Ford still
Sittin' by the old pecan tree
She's got a lotta miles and there ain't
Much left but her class
Daddy's gone now but it means a lot to me
Taking the rusty for a ride when the world
Gets too fast
I used to want so much in a hurry
They told me 'girl, you're gonna go far'
I've done a little traveling and got a whols lot of worry
Now it's on my mind, all the time and I dream about
Dusty small towns and big families
Cooling my memory like a summer rain
Cold well water and dewberry pie
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
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
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
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
And Home
Sings me of sweet things
My life there has it’s own wings
To fly over the mountains
And home is where you hang you head,
Is where you rest your bones,
Is where you're livin'.
And free is how you move your mind,
Is how you feel inside,
Is what you're doin'.
Little girl, yeah,
what you doin'?
No one got to tell you its the hardest part
In a world, yeah, but you're knowin'
Goin' it together is the place to start
And though it brings me down
To home
Is where you hang you head,
Is where you rest your bones,
Is where you're livin'.
Oh little girl, whoa,
What you doin'?
No one got to tell you its the hardest part
In a world, yeah, but we're knowin'
(something something something),
It's all a part
And though it brings me down
To home
Is where you hang your head,
Is where you rest your bones,
Is where you're livin'
And free is how you move your mind,
Is how you feel inside,
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
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 a see my Mama and my Papa back home
Well a home where the river runs cold
The water tastes good the winters ain't cold
A home where trees grow tall
The home fires burn the whippoorwills call
Well I remember stories that my Pappy used to tell
Yeah my eyes would get big 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
Well a home where the river runs cold
The water tastes good the winters ain't cold
A home where trees grow tall
The home fires burn 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
And you said to come home 'cause you're missin' me so
A home where trees grow tall
The home fires burn the whippoorwills call
A home where the river runs cold
The water tastes good the winters ain't cold
A home where trees grow tall
I welcome you my lovely, oh I missed you very much
There was no pride without you, nothing worth to touch
You where living in my dreams, you stool my heart away
You took my mind it seems, oh baby can I stay
Home will ever be,a place where we belong together
Home will ever be, a place where we can last for ever
Wrap my arms around you, I will never let you go
There’s a mean mean world around you
There’s a place that we both know
Where we can light a fire, we can lay dawn on the floor
Baby let there be desire, let it grow for ever more
Home will ever be, a place where we belong together
Home will ever be, a place where we can last for ever
Hang on now my lovely oh it’s been a while agoo
It felt so very cold here, without you to hold
I fought against my fears, I was counting dawn the day’s
Now I always want you near; in my heart there is a place.
Home will ever be a place…
Home will ever be a place…
Home will ever be, a place where we belong together
I don't wanna go cause I'm holding,
Holding on to hope,
The end of my rope is where I'm headed,
Close to letting go
If all I had was one more chance,
Would I be home, would I be coming home
Home is where the grass is green,
Open eyes can barely see,
All the distance we leave in between
Home is where the grass is green,
Recognize that you don't see,
Close to home and miles away from me
Lying awake no one is calling,
Calling much too late,
Nothing feels the same when you are there and,
I'm so far away
If all I had was one more chance,
Would I be home, would I be coming home
Home is where the grass is green,
Open eyes can barely see,
All the distance we leave in between
Home is where the grass is green,
Recognize that you don't see,
Close to home and miles away from me
If all I had was one more chance,
Would I be home, would I be coming home
If all I had was one more chance,
Would I be home, would I be coming...
Home is where the grass is green,
Open eyes can barely see,
All the distance we leave in between
Home is where the grass is green,
Recognize that you don't see,
Close to home and miles away from me
Home is where the grass is green,
Recognize that you don't see,
You've been the counterpart most of my life
You make it feel like I'm alive
You threw a souvenir under my bed, so I could
fall asleep again
Now there was a time!
Hold on to oblivion, till we count the cost, count
the cost I am home
Hold on to oblivion, till we count the cost, count
the cost I am home
Am I a prototype under my skin, swinging back and forth again
Am I a prototype just like you said?
Swinging back and forth again
Will I be alright?
Hold on to oblivion, till we count the cost, count
the cost I am home
Hold on to oblivion, till we count the cost, count
Home
( About Last Night EP )
Came home
Everything was a blur
All mixed up and messed up
Eyes all tired and broken
Came home
Everything was a blur
All mixed up and messed up
Eyes all tired and broken
Came home
Everything was a blur
I saw the map
I've found the map
It was floating and faded and torn
The missing pieces they were gone
This does not make sense
It's all so incomplete
It's all so incomplete
I forgot to say goodbye
I forgot to read the signs
I forgot to say goodbye
I forgot to read the signs
And the map lies here
It's torn and faded
On a dark street lined with pine trees
I close my eyes
Touch the surface
It's all so personal
And confusing
It's all so personal
I would run a thousand miles
Just to see you again
I would cross the widest sea
Just to touch your face once again
Is there a chance for you and me?
Would you try and let me see?
When I cried did you care for me?
I don't think so, I don't understand
Don't you know I relied on you?
To help find a way, way back home
I would never breathe again
I would cry, cry a river for you
'Cause there's no chance, I'll tell you why
A broken heart will always die
When I cried did you care for me?
I don't think so, I don't understand
Don't you know I relied on you?
Just to help find a way...
Tried to hard to make you love me
Fought so hard just to reach you
Now I see it was worthless to think you
Felt the same
When I cried did you care for me?
I don't think so, I don't understand
Don't you know I relied on you?
Just to help find a way... find a way
When I cried did you care for me?
I don't think so, I don't understand
Don't you know I relied on you?
The 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, 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, home
I believe in the quest and the journey
I believe that the answers come in time
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 will be and You will always be
The only love I'll ever know, home
And You have made for me
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,
Here we go,
Here we go, another round, another day
You gotta take each moment,
'cause the time just slips away
I breathe and close my eyes
When I'm with you, yeah I am glad to be alive.
I,I know you are on my side
When I'm with you, yeah it makes me feel alright
It's something I can't hide
Love can save your life
It has occurred to me that I can't always see
Just who I am with all these possibillities
So I just want to be the one I am
When you are here and close to me
I,I know you are on my side
When I'm with you, yeah it makes me feel alright
It's something I can't hide
Love can save your life
I just wanna lay my burdens down
Can you help me lay my burdens down?
You make me feel alright,
I want a place where we can go
I want to be the one who knows you
I want to be the one who shows you
You're never going to have to be alone
I want a place where we can live
I want to be the one who gives you
Everything you've ever wanted
I want a place that we can call our home
I don't want to be a movie star
I don't care if I drive a fancy car
I don't want to be a rock star
Okay, I'd kind of like to be a rock star
But anything that I do I don't care
As long as you're the one who's there when I get home
You're the one I'll lie with
You're the one I'm gonna die with
If I'm gonna cry you're the one I want to cry with
As long as you're around I'll never be alone
You're the one I'll sigh with
You're the one I'll tie the knot with
You're the one I want to read Robert Bly with
As long as you're around I'll always have a home
And even though we've had our doubts
I know we'll work them out
And so we'll find a place to go
We'll make our space
Just say you'll love me every day
I'm here to stay
I lose my security
When your not around
No one can trust but to shelter me
All the walls come falling down
Sound of your voice
Your not alone
Give me the strength I need
To bring me home
To bring me home
Above the clouds spin back and saw
Your fear cant fence me yeah
When I scared I lock the door
Keep the darkness out
till the sun shines again
Sound of your voice
Your not alone
Give me the strength I need
To bring me home
To bring me home
Whenever you near I lose my fear
I know with you I know that I cant go wrong
The darkness keeps waiting
Finally found a better way

Home
Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home
settle down, it'll all be clear
don't pay no mind to the demons
they fill you with fear
the trouble it might drag you down
if you get lost you can always be found
just know you're not alone
I miss that place so much
I close my eyes
I walk in the little town
where I left you
I'm touching every tree
I can feel the ground
I'm kissing every word
that I've said to you
come back, my sweet dreams
don't leave me alone
let's start from that place
where we stopped
let's walk into the rain
let's play with the snow
let's swim in the clear river
as we did before
when I loved you
when I loved him
when I loved her
I loved myself
I miss that place so much
I close my eyes
I walk in the little town
where I found you
I'm touching every tree
I can feel the ground
I'm kissing every word
that I've never said
come back, my sweet dreams
don't leave me alone
let's start from that place
where we stopped
let's walk into the rain
let's play with the snow
let's swim in the clear river
as we did before
when I loved you
when I loved him
when I loved her
I loved myself
I loved myself
I loved myself
I loved myself
I feel something different
I don't know what it is
Something's really missing in my life
Now I know what it is
My weakness calls out my name
It takes me to the place where I used to live home
Someone talks to me nicely can't trust them
Sometimes you make me feel better feeling not alone
My weakness saying to me let's go back home now
Don' make me feel so (go back home)
Never say you know me
Do you ?
Someone whispers to me why not go back home
Sometimes I alomost agree "yeah"
But I think is not that time
My weakness staring at me
As my loved one my sweet place
Where she used to sleep with me
I need more time to see to think
I need more time to see to think of you think of you
Don't make me feel so (go back home)
Never say you know me
Don't make me feel so (go back home)
You never know who I am
I don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you
Who I used to be
If no one ever hears me or sees me
If no one listens to me cares about me
I will sing for you
I will sing for you
Like I use to do
I feel something different
I don't know what it is
Something's really missing in my life
Now I know what it is
My weakness calls out my name
I’ve been led astray
By my body’s flame, desire’s flame
I’ve been almost blind
Going through the storm
But God’s sent me you
Lead me home
Lead me home
Be my guide
Through the storm
Take me home
Take me home
I’ll settle down
I‘ll settle down
I’ve been led astray
All those empty years, lonely years
I’ve been almost blind...
Now I’ve found a guide
’Cause God’s sent me you
Lead me home
Lead me home
Make me find
Peace of mind
Take me home
Show me home
I’ll settle down
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
I ran away in floods of shame
I'll never tell how close I came
As I crossed the Holldand Road
Well you went left and I went right
As the moon hung proud and white
You would have loved it here tonight
Spin me round just to pin me down
On the cover of this strange bed
Spin me round just to pin me down
Wrap up your questions, keep them down
Let the water lead us home
And I was sorry for what I'd done
You were young I was not old
But our story was not told
But torn apart by greedy hands
Spin me round just to pin me down
On the cover of this strange bed
Spin me round just to pin me down
Spin me round just to pin me down
I'll be gone by the night's end
Spin me round just to pin me down
And I'll be home in a little while
Too long time gone
Feels like no home
Strange days have come
Drive me my love
Don’t speak now please
I dream my dreams
Words make no sense
I need to rest
Hey boy I want to go home
Hey boy I need to go home
I have to go home
I've been home for days
These walls know me by name
When I stare at the pictures they move in the frame
Does this mean I'm going insane?
I'm going insane
Waiting on a call from you
Waiting to be found by you
In this house alone, this is not my home, it's not my
home
God I feel this emptiness
Be the one you always kiss
I want you, just take me home
I've been driving around
But you're still nowhere to be found
Maybe it's time I moved on from this town
Coz missin' is dragging me down, it's dragging me down
Waiting on a call from you
Waiting to be found by you
In this house alone, this is not my home, it's not my
home
God I feel this emptiness
Be the one you always kiss
I want you, just take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Waiting on a call from you
Waiting to be found by you
In this house alone, this is not my home, it's not my
home
Gotta feel this emptiness
Be the one you always kiss
These concrete buildings scrape the sky
Capital City's keeping you on my mind all the time
But some days I want to run down these alleys screaming
"Get me the fuck out of this place!"
I'm out of my mind...
Woah! I'm never going, we're never going home
Woah! I'm never going, we're never going home
Never stop moving, Never stop running
Woah! I'm never going, we're never going home
They said "You're never gunna go...
You went off to college and found Albany
45 minutes away from home"
Well, Hudson River City's in my soul,
I love where I'm from but sometimes you gotta go,
And I'm gunna go! Woah!
She asked for planes but only got straw wings
And I broke my arm trying to fly
Still we'll spread out to both horizon lines
Home is a comfort and home is a light,
A place to leave the darkness outside,
Home is a peaceful and ever full feeling
A place where a soul safely hides.
And being in a home should remind you that still
There's a place that's prepared just for you
And I think my home is just Heaven's reflection
As long as my home's here with you.
Home is where someone is waiting and loving,
And happy to see you again,
That half of your heart that somebody else treasures
The one who's your forever friend.
But it seems that He's told me,
The life that He's showed me
Is a life mostly spent on the road
But when the world's empty charm
Has done all of its harm
I know that His love waits for me in you arms.
Cause home is a comfort and home is a light
A place to leave the darkness outside
Home is a peaceful and ever full feeling
A place where a soul safely hides.
And being in a home should remind you that still
There's a place that's prepared just for you
And I think my home is just Heaven's reflection
As long as my home's here with you.
And being in a home should remind you that still
There's a place that's prepared just for you
And I think my home is just Heaven's reflection
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, ?
Reaching high above the stars
Understand there's something more, to believe in
Always better if you know
You can trust in me, I'll be there
Just remember who you are
Deep inside your heart is the way, to discover
All the pieces left behind
Everyone has darkness sometime
I'm lookin' for one good sign, and I'll be right there by
your side
Guiding your heart all the way, 'cause I've come to take
you home..
When the day begins to fade, and you're feeling too
afraid
Just remember who you are, 'cause I've come to take you
home
When you feel you've lost your way, and there's nothing
left to say
Always better if you know, that I've come to take you
home
I'm lookin' for one good sign, and I'll be right there by
your side
Guiding your heart all the way, 'cause I've come to take
You're so much prettier when you smile
I didn't teahc you to be angry
You don't know how lucky you are
Some day you'll thank me
Doesn't matter if I'm depressed
You make sure my face is dressed
With a smile that won't express
What's inside is such a mess
Home is such a happy place
You can lose your mask
You can show your face
Why does it leave such a bitter taste
Home
Home is where the heart breaks
You're so twisted when you fake it
Am I the only one who sees
You never wanted me to make it
Myabe if I said please
Doesn't matter if I'm good
Do everything that I should
You'd slit me if you could
What's wrong with you I'm your blood
Home is such a happy place
You can lose your mask
You can show your face
Why does it leave such a bitter taste
Home
Home is where the heart breaks
(Home is where the heart breaks)
Doesn't matter if I'm good
Do everything that I should
You'd slit me if you could
What's wrong with you I'm your blood
Home is such a happy place
You can lose your mask
You can show your face
Why does it leave such a bitter taste
Home
Home is where the heart breaks
Home is such a happy place
You can lose your mask
You can show your face
Why does it leave such a bitter taste
Home
Your going Home to heaven
Home, home, home, home.
Your going to heaven, going home
If you look there in my eyes
Now you caught me reminiscing
About a girl, about a love that’s become an apparition
My confession, my life lesson, My stupid expedition
I can still can here the keys as they turn on the
ignition
Well I I could bring her back would you call me a
magician
Well I am sorry that I am not better call up a
physician
So I prayed to god to offer up a proposition
But I am sorry to say he wasn’t take a submission
Such a special child limited edition
In my heart you’ll always have the number one position
When I speak of love
You’ll always be my only definition
I miss your face
I kiss your smile
I miss the way you look at me
I muss you baby
Home, Home, Home
Your going to heaven going home
Sometimes late at night I’ll wake up in the dark
And I’ll look around my room like a nightmare of the
heart
I am lost inside the sea since we’ve been apart
And n o one is coming to save me, save me from the
sharks
I still remember the first time we went to the park
You smiled up at me as your eyes found there mark
You were such a gentle child, such a gentle spark
When God created you, you were his best piece of art
Sometimes I get so cold, lying in the dark
But when I have you with me baby here in my heart
If I could go back to the beginning back to the start
I’d change just one moment before the world fell apart
Your going home
Your going home
Look at you hiding behind your sweater
What I want to say
Let it fall away
I don't care
If we're alone, can be trusted on my own
I can never bring you home
Second guess I drift in all directions
Once impressed, half undressed all day
I'm not strong You don't believe
I may be wrong
That I can never bring you home
If I do and don't resist you
I'm too in love to really miss you
In fact I'm frozen over joy
Yes I did and yes I want to
But nothing good can come to
Someone pretending he is alone
Yes I did and yes I want to
But nothing good can come to
Someone pretending he is alone
Home, everybody wants to go home
Even when they're old
Even when they're small
Home, everybody wants to go home
Even when they're old
Even when they're small
Home
Home
Home
Home is where the heart is
Home is so remote
Home is just emotion
Sticking in my throat
Chorus
Lets go to your place
Lets go to your place
Home is where the heart is
Home is so remote
Home is just emotion
Sticking in my throat
Home is hard to swallow
Home is like a rock
Home is good clean living
Home is, I forgot
Chorus twice
Home is so suspicious
Home is close control
Home is will you miss us
Home is, I don't know
Chorus twice
Home is aggrovation
Home is so much fuss
Home is mind your business
Thank you very much
Chorus twice
I don't want to go back
I don't want to go back
I don't want to go back any more
Home
Home
Home
Home
Home
Home
Take me home
Just do it right
Make it perfect and real
Because it's everything
No everything was never the deal
So grab your things and stumble into the night
So we can shut the door
Oh, shut the door on terrible times
Yeah, do it right
And head again into space
So you can carry on
And carry on, and fall all over the place
This is the trick, forget a terrible year
That we can break the laws
Until it gets weird
And this is what you waited for
But under lights, we're all unsure
So tell me
What would make you feel better?
As night has such a local ring
And love and rock are pick-up things
And you know it
Yeah, you know it
Yeah, you know
Take
Forget your past
This is your last chance now
And we can break the rules
Like nothing will last
You might forget
Forget the sound of a voice
Still you should not forget
Yeah, don't forget
The things that we laughed about
And after rolling on the floor
And thankfully, a few make sure that you get home
And you stay home
And you better
'Cause you're afraid of what you need
Yeah, you're afraid of what you need
If you weren't, yeah you weren't
Then I don't know what we'd talk about
Yeah no one ever knows what you're talking about
So i guess you're already there
No one opens up when you scream and shout
But it's time to make a couple things clear
If you're afraid of what you need
If you're afraid of what you need
Look around you, you're surrounded
It won't get any better
Floating away
Fading away again
Fall from your arms
Find my feet again
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
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
Find my way home
Facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Find my way home
Facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Fall from your arms
Find my feet again
Floating away
Fading away again
Fall from your arms
Find my feet again
I'll find my way home
You're coming down
You're coming round again
Facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Facing your eyes
I'll find my way home
Find my way home
Find my way home
Lights all around
I'm going down town
Congress Avenue Bridge
Is taking me home
It's 2 a.m.
My girlfriend's sleeping again
This melody
Is taking me home
Open up your wicker basket
Shoulder satchel
Name your tasks and find a spot
Take the ones you need
Mold ?em gently, find familiar
Know the meaning
You can understand which way
The fates will go
The glitter and the gaudy show
You'll never have to feel alone
So find your way
And find your way back home
My kittens black
He knows where life's at
He takes his time
He takes it slow
"But we have a great high priest how is able to sympathize with our weaknesses, who is able to set the captives free. 'I came to rescue my lost sheep, you blind guides, my prodigal sons. I have fulfilled the law. I have passed through the heavens, and you are not forgotten. Come boldly into this throne room of grace, because I will be there for you when you need it most, and my hands are still outstretched, raw, but your stones fit through their holes perfectly and what you cast as evil, I transformed, and took the consequence. I remembered all of my promises. There is hope for you. You are a new creation. You are a new creation, and I will always take you back if you've forgotten your first love.'"
Under the radar
Over the edge
We will remember
We can’t forget
A baby is crying
A woman’s heart bleeds
A man, he is dying
Blood runs to the sea
And we will know
By the end of the hour
Who is the hero
And who is the coward
We will sing out
In the words of our mothers
We will find solace
In the arms of our brothers
Home...we’re going home
Home... we’re going home
Where are we going?
Can you see where we’ve been?
Is this the ending?
Or where we begin?
And we will know
By the end of the hour
Who is the hero
And who is the coward
We will sing out
In the words of our mothers
We will find solace
In the arms of our brothers
Home...we’re going home
Out in the street beneath the rolling sky
Sometimes they give, sometimes they pass by
It's the random falling as the wheel of fortune spins
And home is wherever they take you in
The chemical wind burned you to the bone
And when you came back, you were not the same
It took the kindness of strangers to bring you in
Because home is wherever they take you in
Chris, you were gone, out on the edge
These things that destroy are inside of ourselves
It's always the kindness of strangers to wash away these
sins
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
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
All I want to follow thru
Pattern-less cell tissue
Hit the switch
Light your long way home
All I want, to find your child
You and her reconciled
Make you smile
Light your long way home
All I want, time for you
Simple things that you pursue
Fill the void
Light your long way home
Cause you are my beacon
You are my therapy, my loneliness interrupted
And I have rarely favored your needs home
My one true find you life
Who you are, your birthright
It's your time
The lights will line your way home
What if I could tell the world I see you?
What if I could make them understand?
And if I could show those fools they need you
It wouldn't change the fact that you need them
And if you find yourself in great transition
And you think perhaps you've lost your way
On the edge and fragile your position
Then there's only one thing I can say
Welcome home, yeah, 'cause it's your home
If a tree falls and nobody's listening
If a party's thrown and no one shows
And you dream about what you are missing when the wind in February blows
Welcome home, 'cause it's your home
If you hide amongst the darkness
Let me offer you a light
And if you stay, by the light of day
Fearful when the sun goes down
Come out with me tonight
What if I could make the world beseech you?
What if I could make you understand that from the highest branch no one could reach you?
But should the bough break you can take my hand
I know that really letting go (Looking for the signs that April's coming)
In spite of falling to and fro
It's not no simple thing
Not an ordinary stunt to try
But I can see it's on your mind (Can hurt worse than any ache you feel)
And whatever you will find
Whatever hope will bring
I can see it in your eye
Will bring release (Forcing words into that tune you're humming)
Perhaps a modicum of peace
Perchance to dream
Perchance to bust out at the seam
And the mere chance (Which did I make up and which were real)
Sustains as bravely I advance
But it don't matter what I do
Without some one to bring it to
Welcome home
Come home
Make it home
Go home
Leave home
And find a home
Build a home
And feel at home
When I think of home
I think of a place where theres 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 theres a chance for me to go back there
Now that I have some direction
It would sure be nice to be back home
Where theres 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 its face
But I still know where Im going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet Ive watched it growing
If youre listning god
Please dont 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 its real, real to me
And Ive learned
That we must look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours
Like me
My heart fails
My mind falters
Sometimes my passion fades
Sometimes my desires change
Sometimes I turn my head and I look the other way
When I'm restless you are rest
When I'm helpless you are help
When I'm nervous you settle me
When I'm empty you fill me
When I've gone to far you gently bring me home
'Cause you are home
Home is where my history begins
Home is where you delight in me
Home is where your voice is in my ear
fatal habits, broken dreams
waking up isn't all it seems
we held on to what we couldn't see
i carried you, you carried me
camped out in hollywood roasting letters from your
father
we proved survival of the why bother
we were young and excited
we were lost and alone
we were free, but misguided
and we had no place to call home
same old story, different song
most people get the lyrics wrong
verse by verse we faced a raging bull
stomach empty, balls full
late nights in hollywood banging guitars and boys
swingsets and cigarettes were our joys
we were young and excited
we were lost and alone
we were free, but misguided
and we had no place to call home
why don't the gideons leave condoms in the drawer?
bibles don't save many people anymore
we took up quarters in the bathroom, there were dollars
on the floor
i looked at you, you said to me, "jay, we're worth
more"
we were young and excited
we were lost and alone
we were free, but misguided

[Chorus:]
Oh Lord I'm coming home.
It's been so long I've gone away.
Sometimes it's just good to roam.
Makes you wanna find yo way home.
It ain't the same no more, people done changed on me.
Can't complain no more, cause I changed too.
I felt strange before, like I could not be me.
I just got to go, got to go home.
[Chorus]
This ain't my place no more, the plan done changed on me.
Can't complain no more, cause I changed too.
I felt insane before, like I could not be free.
Took another road, to find my way home.
[Chorus]
We 'ce been so many places, played so many stages.
But we're glad we're here, cause here is home.
We've been all the rage in Indonesia and Asia.
But we're glad we're here, cause here is home.
[Chorus: low]
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
Darling, please invite me in.
I want to see where we begin.
I can't recall how long it's been,
So would you please invite me in?
There's newsprint marks outside my door,
And dust upon my kitchen floor.
It cleans up well, of this, I'm sure.
So won't you please come in?
It's a long and broken road
I've been walking all alone.
When I'm with you, I am home.
So won't you please come in?
Darling, please invite me in.
We may be flawed by design,
And now may not be the right time.
But you came without a warning sign.
And I'm begging let me in.
It's a long and broken road
I've been walking all alone
When I'm with you, I am home.
So won't you please come in?
Darling, please invite me in.
From the morning dawn till the day is done.
From the call to arms till the war is won.
I'll release my fear with the falling sun.
[Big sean - verse 1]
Hey, I told my city I'll be back but for now I'm leaving
Tell em I'm leaving
Promise I'll be back though, at least once a season
Tell em I'ma get it, I'm who they can believe in
And I'ma bring it back like I kept all the receipts and
My hood show me love, I'm there to receive it
I know I run my city because I'm there to see it
It's hard being a citizen settling up in michigan
I'm trying to make a name like a f-cking birth certificate
Awwwww! now a nigga on
And the dj playing my song
And she wanna drink a little dom perignon
With sean!
I pray that it ain't temporary
I've seen it in my dreams though
Mr visionary and I told them what it is though
Mr. dictionary and they so f-ckin regular
I call em missionary like
[Hook]
Aww! can't wait til I get back home
And I'ma put all my niggas on
And we gonna be the ones on tv
Everybody gon see me, you'll see man
Aww! can't wait til I get back home
And I'ma put all my niggas on
And we gonna be the ones on tv
Everybody gon see me, you'll see man
[Big sean - verse 2]
I walk up in this bitch like "do I need an introduction?"
When you living out your dreams sleep's an interruption
Man, I hate it how the city a corruption
With no concussion or a toolie tucked in
Yeah, we paid or we laid up,
No minimum wages, yeah, what else can I say? huh
We ain't no bed or a lie but we made up
While they was all sleeping later we stayed up
With drapes up like, aww!
And I'ma be home soon as I get the crown and throne
And the name across it is my own
Who would've known that we'd be paid off this musical grind
Unusual I'm me and my beautiful mind
That's why my niggas high-class like a school in the sky
I spit the heat, you might see a mirage but no facade nigga
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
And 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
With a body of straw
Are you sick of it all?
There's a man made of tin
With an oil can grin
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
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 wanna be bold
I wanna be cold
I wanna grow old
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
I've been crossing out the days 'til
all of you can hear me sing
and I remember that summer when
we all caught our second wind.
Well, maybe I'm not the man that I thought I've become,
but that's just the way things are where I'm from.
When time turns our dreams to more everyday things
We can never lose our pride in what we've done.
Still, I've never been one for settlin'.
I've been making a list of the things I won't miss
about this lonestar town and everyone who never saw
what we were always singing for.
Everyone, everyone in this town
(Everyone)
is standing up to sing heavy heart songs.
(in this town)
Running out of patience with our own self-pity
(sang it out)
But it's good to know that somebody still feels like me.
(let it out.)
I just get so caught up in these
everyday eyes and those sleepless night stares
I start being surprised when my friend's disappearing.
I'm left here wondering where I was
while they packed up all the things that I love.
And I've gotten used to not missing you.
Over time, I understate
all those things that make me separate
while I lay awake and think about
everything that I can never be again.
Everyone, everyone in this town
(Everyone)
is standing up to sing heavy heart songs.
(in this town)
Running out of patience with our own self-pity
(sang it out)
But it's good to know that somebody still feels like me.
(let it out.)
These months that I spend closer to the sun have been
screaming at me, "Kid, you can't just run away from
everything that you're always so, so afraid
to let everyone hear you say
like 'These days, it seems like all I have left are
outgoing calls to the people who, if they only knew better,
wouldn't care about any of this at all.'"
Everyone, everyone in this town
(Everyone)
is standing up to sing heavy heart songs.
(in this town)
Running out of patience with our own self-pity
(sang it out)
But it's good to know that somebody still feels like me.
don't worry
a little distance is the price we pay
for experience,isn't experience the reason why you wen't away
outside the leaves are brown,the leaves are brown and
this is the fourth time this has happened
since i loved you
as far as seasons go,they always go and this one is emptier than most
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
we'll i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
you've been gone so long,it's tearing my soul
aphrodite i swear on my soul your oxygen to me
you'll reconize me i'll be the one who's on his knees
outside it's getting cold ;it's really cold and
this is the fourth time this is happened since i loved you
as far as seasons go ;they always go this one is emptier than most
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
we'll i take you all the way all the way all the way home
you've been gone so long it's tearing my soul
don't worry
you're only human and the sand is warm
it won't be easy but we have gotten through a whole lot more
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
well i'll take you all the way all the way all the way home
well i'l take you all the way all the way all the way home
Summertime on Old Bay Road
Innocence, no where to go
There were fireflies in mid July
Lighting up the northern skies
I'm with the love of my life, and I
I feel at home here
I used to watch you play from a stool on the bar
Watch where your fingers lay on that old guitar
Then I tried to sing to you a song I wrote
Anything that would move us closer to certainty
You left so easy that I found a home alone
Now I dig down deep enough to find the place I hide the tears
The photos and the tapes have lasted 10 years
Now you live downstairs, maybe across the street
With your wife and child and we sometimes meet
In the grocery line, the movie aisles,
paying parking fines, sometimes on line
On rainy nights in our different lives
We have our own homes
We said we never would lose grip but it is hard to
Always fit. It's hard to match in all situations but it's so
Hard to admit. I realise that within the last years I have
Seen things in a different way, since we share the same
Visions, I've found belief again. You went away, I understand
Today, you just wanted to go home. I emptied
A bottle and suppressed all that I felt inside, my blind
Way of handling a strife. Now fuck those old issues, I'm
Proud but I want to move on. I can forgive and forget
And I know you can to. I was astray, I understand today,
What we both wanted was to find a way. I understand
Lonely Wednesday nights
Staring at the lights
Shadows come to life
Entering my mind
I'm going insane
Without you here with me
I want you beside me
Cure my insanity
When I come home
Your lovely dark brown eyes
Wish I can see tonight
It's still January dear
See you in two weeks time
I'm going crazy
Without you here with me
I'm rushing time
So I can bring you smiles
When I come home
When I come home
My darling beautiful
My heart is yours to own
Eating pik-niks and munching bread sticks
Won't thin this feeling at all
I'm missing you badly
Deeply, intensely, exceedingly
I'd give everything to you
Will you rule my world?
When I come home
When I come home
When I come home
When I come home
Home
Home
I've fallen down I can't get up again
I've lost myself, I'm losing everything
I wish I could change the world, I'll find a way
All we ever wanted was a place to call home and not to feel alone
When the sun went down
We should never change the way that we are
Cause we've come too far to turn back
How could you just walk away from me?
I'm not asking for your sympathy, just love me
I wish I could change the wolrd, I'll find a way
All we ever wanted was a place to call home and to not feel alone
When the sun went down
We should never cahnge the way that we are
Cause we've come too far to turn back now
And time goes on with or without us
So don't linger on what you can't change
All we ever wanted was a place to call home and to not feel alone
When the sun went down
We should never change the way that we are
Waiting for the sun to rise
Was it something I said
Feeling all that is right and wrong
Mixing up in my head
Wont you just let me come around
Cuz you know that I can
Bring me back to just what I know
A home
I'm alone
All troubled pass in time
And we can make it through
You tell me that its not what I say
But what I can do
I can't make it alone
I want to come home
Blinded by these city lights
Now they just got in the way
And its so lonely this evening town
It makes no sense anyway
Now it's what you say that I'm riding on
Cuz all those times I let you down
You were there to stay
All troubled pass in time
And we can make it through
You tell me that it's not what I say
But what I can do
I can't make it alone
Inside i knew the passing of time would lead to you
Impossible, yet tangible, an ancient dream comes true
Happy since confessing your affect on me
You are my song, you’re my appetite
You lift me higher than any satellite
And i’m just still astounded
I didn’t know there was perfection
I tried to lose the quest for home
Then i found you
Anyhow, i broke the spell
Was swept away on the swell
Sail for home
Inside i knew
The people poured their concrete floors,
And built their churches and their walls,
They painted pictures of their hopes and fears on them.
A single look, a tiny touch can change the system, it's enough,
And I can see it all in you love.
And your eyes explode with light, explode with light, I'm covered in your light.
My home is where you are,
In every beat, in every beat we're closer.
My home is where you are,
In every beat, in every beat we're closer.
They fashioned streets out of the rock,
And struck up statues to their gods,
And hung out flags on every corner they made.
We are charged, spoiling to go,
You bring me back back to where I'm from,
A billion molecules all lined up.
And our hearts are pulsing with life, Pulsing with life, we're pulsing with life.
My home is where you are,
In every beat, in every beat we're closer.
My home is where you are,
I laid myself out on the pavement
so everything is alright now
The sky is blue and the leaves are calling
so beautiful falling from the bough
And I believe
People get what they deserve
If you listen to me
I'll tell you what I've heard
I've got a couple notebooks
And a backpack with one t-shirt in it
I've got a few maxed out credit cards
And a brain that's got no limit
The clock counts down waiting for the show now
The crowd lines up you can feel the nerves
Keep a steady head and don't fuck it up now
The impressions good or your gonna hurt
The products the same
So just act it out like they did before you!
The message was lame
just pretend you are playing a game.
Don't listen to the broadcast
The news ain't good its gonna bring you down
Don't need another problem up in my
Head I've got enough and I'm leaving town
we'll sing:
Lets pack up and fly away from here.
You can leave your troubles in Ohio
and lets forget all those wasted years
not coming back we're never coming back no way.
The air smelled bad and the van was roasting
I could not sleep and the traffic was bad
The 30 bucks couldn't buy us gas I
wish I had that cash that I gave to my dad
There's no need to complain
I should have known that it would be this way
There's no one to blame
and now I have to live with a debt that I can't repay
I'm getting on a boat now
To sail far away to somewhere I don't know
The sneakers on my feet turned into boots and my
heart is singing the blues
we sang
Lets pack up and fly away from here.
You can leave your troubles in Ohio
and lets forget all those wasted years
not coming back we're never coming back no way.
The sun stopped shining
The bombs start falling
The sun goes down and now I wanna go home
now I wanna go home
This land is barren no food and water
My friends go down and now I wanna go home
Back to my country and the land of the free
Give me a big mac with a coke...Oh Say can you see!
I want to kick my feet back and watch Family Guy til Four ay em
I wanna drive my car to Adam's house and play smash with Jake and Ben...
Is love really on the way?
and Hey
Is someone gonna show us the way?
Its not alright tonight I see the light and
the porch on 154 seems so far away
Another day it passes by
Mom I don't know if I can
face the facts and do it on my own
I'm twisted up in all these lies that I can't escape and
Yeah that's when I'll come home
I laid myself out in the grass
so everything is alright somehow
The sky is blue and the leaves are green
Belle:
Yes, I made the choice
For papa, I will stay
But I don't deserve to 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
Ev'ry day in my childhood:
Even when you grow old
Home should be where the heart is
Never where 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 place
Oh, 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 now I can't
All my problems going by
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 ev'ry lock and key
Nothing lasts, nothing holds
All of me
My heart's far, far away
Forced myself through another day
Cant explain the way today
Just fell upon like everything
Right in my face
And I tried to be the one
I cant except it's all because of you
I had to walk away
From everything
And Im afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when i'm gone
And Im 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 tried so hard to be
Everyhting that I sould never take away from you
Cus I heard you say
And Im afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when i'm gone
And Im afraid to come back home
I can not forgive
I live with regret
I can not forgive
I live with regret
I live through this
I cant tsee through this
I cant do this anymore
Cus Im afraid to be alone
Afraid you'll leave me when Im gone
Im afraid to come back home
Afraid you'll leave me when Im gone
I just wish I was back home
What have I done
I havn’t sat still for 7 years
What if I came back home
Wouldn’t they know that I overcame all my fears
Don’t I deserve a free ride now
I am home
I’m not afraid
I’m not alone
My heart doesn’t race
I am here with all of these friends
It’s just that they don’t know me yet
Isn’t it good to find yourself in a desperate place
You suddenly find you’ve got nothing to lose and no time to waste
People seem closed until you look them in the eye
And say “Hello, I’m lonely”
I am home
I’m not afraid
I’m not alone
My heart doesn’t race
I am here with all of these friends
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.
And I didn't even notice I was gone
And I wanna come back home
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth I need to know
There's a million places I can go, but without you it ain't home.
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
Trying is the only way we'll know
And I wanna come back home
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth I need to know
There's a million places I can go, but without you it ain't
It ain't hopeless please believe me.
Don't give up cause we're halfway there
We're at the crossroads in the middle
Between hope between despair
All we need is some direction
Let me know you're there for me
Where you are is where I'll be
Show me the way to make a start
Show me the road back to your heart
And I've learned the only truth I need to know
There's a million places I can go but without you it ain't home
Home
Home is not the place for…
Home is just where you are
And you are all the world to me.
Call
Call me if you need me
‘Cause I’ll be there, believe me
‘Cause you are all the world to me.
Just say the words that
I’m thinking of, and
Keep telling me,
It’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright,
(And I
Just say the words and)
And I do
Anything I can to
Anything to help you
‘Cause if you need me here I am
And I will
Lift you on my shoulder
And when it’s dark I’ll hold you
‘Cause you are all the world to me.
Just say the words that
I’m thinking of, and
Keep telling me,
It’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright,
(And I)
Just say the words and
Promise you
And I
Promise you
And I’ll be there
And I’ll be there
And I’ll be there
And I’ll be there
Heaven knows I will come to you
Anytime you need me there
Close my eyes and start to sing
Are you really listening?
Oh my lord when I open them, will you still be there?
I Hold my breath and count to ten
This is really happening!
When do you really get to go home
When do you really get to go home
When do you really get to go home
When do you really get to go home
When do you really get to go home
When do we really get to go home
When do we really get to go home
When do we really get to go home
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
First you must go walking on your own
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Maybe then we already are home
Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Row row row your boat
Gently down the stream
Gently down the stream now
Gently down the stream
Gently down the stream now
Gently down the stream
Gently down the stream now
Gently down the stream
Gently down the stream
Your voices swirl and welcome me,
Hem me in, this anthem sweet.
That we are all familiar now,
We're in each other's blood somehow.
I will never be a stranger,
I will never be alone.
Cause wherever you are is home.
So raise a glass and gather round,
Toast the night and friendships found.
And I'll lay to rest my troubled face,
And breathe deep this amazing grace.
I will never be a stranger,
I will never be alone.
Cause wherever you are is home.
Sometime soon this road may part,
Mine may end where yours starts.
But should you ever need me,
You know right where I will be.
You will never be a stranger,
You will never be alone.
This is the end, this is the moment when I see
Why I'm grateful of your presence here with me
This is the end, of my time here but forever
I will know that you are here when I am gone
And I am grateful for you, now I'm going
I'm running to my home
Thats where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
So I can add you to that perfect life with me
This is the end, this is the moment that I live for
Every dream I chased, I caught, or came and went
This is the end of being young and reckless
Of every friend that never let me down
And I am grateful for you, now I'm going
I'm running to my home
That's where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
So I can add you to that perfect life with me
Time is on our side if we use it right regrets are faded
Coming together is better than never letting go
Of the feeling you let in I can't imagine living alone
And containing my every little thought inside my head
Home, home, home
That's where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
This is the end, this is the moment when I see
Why I'm grateful of your presence here with me
This is the end, of my time here but forever
I will know that you are here when I am gone
And I am grateful for you, now I'm going
I'm running to my home
Thats where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
So I can add you to that perfect life with me
This is the end, this is the moment that I live for
Every dream I chased, I caught, or came and went
This is the end of being young and reckless
Of every friend that never let me down
And I am grateful for you, now I'm going
I'm running to my home
Thats where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
So I can add you to that perfect life with me
Time is on our side if we use it right regrets are faded
Coming together is better than never letting go
Of the feeling you let in I can't imagine living alone
And containing my every little thought inside my head
Home, home, home
Thats where you'll find me
Where I'm locked away inside
Where my hopes and dreams reside
Tonight I'm waiting to come and take you
Waiting to come and take your picture
This is me without sleeping
A broken tree, a willow weeping
Is this really happening?
Yes, it's really happening
This was not part of the plan
This is me under pressure
Hopefully no desperate measures
A day late and a dollar short
I'm a day late and a dollar short
I try my best
I always try my best
Let's just hope that it will do
And if not, I'll still have you
I am free
This is me finally listening
This is me finally sleeping
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
On the morning of tomorrow somethin' gonna crack.
Better not be me...'cause i'm on my way back. Home.. better look out...
I'm around the bend five hundred horse power.
One thousand miles of interstate between you and me this hour.
Home... better look out.
White line speed fever full beam electric eye.
Run 'em down in rain town Mac truck flashin' by.
Wheels turn gas burn hold on to the road train.
Spinnin' on the sound of a fuel injection.
Oh yeah... Home.... Ooh yeah.
Home.... that's where my heart is.
Home.... that's where my heart is. Home...
Let me tell you now thaat's where I wanna be
I'd crash through any barrier, to change a point of view.
Oh I'd break down the walls of hell to be back there with you
so i'm coming home and I hope my aim is true.
Home...better look out
Home.... that's where my heart is.
Home.... that's where my heart is. Home...
Lover I believe you when you say that I'm the one
But the rumours of another man...oh
watch my wheels turn heart yearn white line that never stops.
Wheels turn road burn tacho turn like a clock
Black sky revs high radio tuned to rock..rock..rock..rock..Comin' home
Home.... that's where my heart is.
Home.... that's where my heart is.
Turbo charged deadline get a hit in 66.
Nightline to stateline 1000 up gear shift
White line speed fever full beam electric eye.
Run 'em down in rain town Mac truck flashin' by.
18 gear NV8 HGV TCR 13 tonne heads hot turn it off 10.4 ohh
Home.... that's where my heart is. Home...
'Cos i'm a white light electric eye, wheels turn. Go flashin' by
I can't tell you where I've been,
but I hope to God you know.
I want to run away from this.
Fuck California,
it's just the safest place I know;
where everything is making sense.
So get me out of here
and I will take this to my grave,
yeah, that's my dream.
You took me out to make a point.
I made damn sure you missed your flight.
I've got more lines
to write about you when you're gone.
Because see, this CD has got me lost
and songs won't ever save my life.
Just send those post cards to make it known
that you won't take to heart all the ways I've lost,
because I'm gone now and I'm trying not to change.
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I'm a liar, but I'm working on my ways.
I swear some day when I've got a way to change my life,
I'll be a singer with a throat; and I won't fuck up all these lines.
But that's a hope, yeah that's all I'll ever be.
You used to have your faith in all my words,
but now you're killing all of me.
that you won't take to heart all the ways I've lost,
because I'm gone now and I'm trying not to change.
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I'm a liar, but I'm working on my ways.
I lost my voice, and then my mind.
I wrote a book of all my thoughts
that could take me from my life.
I had to fight to stay alive,
because if I make it through the night
then I just swear I could survive.
So where's your head,
and all your heart?
I've got a plan to make this work,
but I can't bring myself to try.
I'll take this slow. I'll make you move.
I know you can hear me screaming because it's all I ever do.
that you won't take to heart all the ways I've lost,
because I'm gone now and I'm trying not to change.
When everything I want to sing is just wasting breath;
I was drunk again, caused an accident
So you're not a friend, no you're nothing
I think I should be a little more confident in my self, in my skin
Take me, take me, home, home...
Take me, take me, home, home...
Cos I don't stand a chance in these four walls
And he don't recognize me anymore
Burned out our flame, should never reignite,
But I thought you might...
Take me, take me, home, home...
Take me, take me, home, home...
Home.
Now he's moving close, my heart in my throat
I won't say a word, but I think he knows
That I've hardly slept since the night he left
His body always kept mine inside of it
Keep the nightmares out, give me mouth to mouth
I can't live without you, take me to your house
Take me, take me, home, home...
Take me, take me, home, home...
Take me, take me, home, home...
But I thought you might...
Take me, take me, home, home...
Take me, take me, home, home...
It's cold out here tonight
I'm worn out from the fight
I catch my breath
And pray for rest
Still a fire burns, lighting up the room
I know You're here with me
You wrap me in Your arms,
Like only You can do,
I know You're all I need
With You, I'll always be
Home
Days like this will come
But still I'm gonna trust
You are the strength, in me
And You will never leave
Still a fire burns, lighting up the room
I know You're here with me
You wrap me in Your arms,
Like only You can do,
I know You're all I need
With You, I'll always be
Home
I won't forget all You have done for me
I find my hope in who You are
And when I feel alone,
You will always comfort me
It's You who holds my heart
Home is where You are
Still a fire burns, lighting up the room
I know You're here with me
You wrap me in Your arms,
Like only You can do,
I know You're all I need
With You, I'll always be
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
Everybody has enough, and you don't have to put on clothes
Every time I try to tell you how I feel inside
I always make the same mistake
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
And I end up murmuring foolishly it makes me want to scream
How I get so stupified
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
But you're headed round and ruond
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
Time keeps ticking, ticking away
I'm still looking for an, easy way to say
That nothing matters and what if it did
Just choose your dreams any way you seem fit
It's o.k to hold on to the past but not to long
Cause it made you feel so strong, now you know where you belong
A little place called home
When there's nowhere to go, when your down and your low
When the feeling becomes so much more than you know
Just remember, that there's a place called home.
When there's no one around to pick you up when your down
Just take a look at yourself and turn this mess around
And start heading for that place called home
Can't find a reason why your standing so tall
Cause your still looking, for the meaning of it all
Have you ever wondered how it made you feel
Did you ever question all this pain being real
It's o.k to discover the world in your own ways
There's a place where the heart stays
And I know one of these days
You'll find your own way home
When there's nowhere to go, when your down and your low
When the feeling becomes so much more than you know
Just remember, that there's a place called home
When there's no one around to pick you up when your down
Just take a look at yourself and turn this mess around
And start heading for that place called home
When there's no one around to pick you up when your down
Just take a look at this mess and turn yourself around
It's always easy when there's nothing at stake
Just free your mind from all the rules that you break
And then some day, it's gonna be like some say
No other place like home.
When there's nowhere to go, when your down and your low
When the feeling becomes so much more than you know
Just remember...
When there's no one around to pick you up when your down
Just take a look at yourself and turn this mess around
Drink this water from my hand
And fall asleep in my arms
Even good things have to end
I'll be leaving in the morning
And to the way things were
I can never go back
I got new reasons
To keep my life on track
And I want to go home
Who want to go home?
The bus leaves Boston for DC
My head against the cold glass
Street lamps, the faint glow of the city
The final chapter in my past
And to the way things were
I can never go back
I got new reasons
To keep my life on track
And I want to go home
Who want to go home?
Who want to go home?
I want to go home
It's a place where no one ever lets me down
And all my favorite people are around
I'm getting back to this new love I've found, oh yeah
A girl in Chicago expected a call
But I thought I made it clear
That isn't me anymore at all
My heart is home but I'm out here
Everybody sings they all I wanna go home
Who wanna go home?
We wanna go home
I want to go home
I found my way back home today
Fifteen years each way
I think I feel safe
And when they find I have something to say
I hope they see straight through me
To what I really mean
And yes I feel it in my heart
And nothing else could make me feel this way
Oh, here I am
Here I am
I am home
I think I lost my way somehow
And now I know
The way to go
I thought about it so many times
But here I am
And I feel fine
And yes I feel it in my heart
And nothing else could make me feel this way
Oh, here I am
Oh, here I am
I am home at last
Here I am
Oh, here I am
This barricade, oh barricades
Has fallen down
It's fallen down
And nothing could compare
To the way that I feel
The way that I feel
Late at night I watch the cars
Quickly passing by…
Several people on their way
Driving somewhere…
Some are happy, some are not,
Some are hollow,
Some lost something they had got,
Others seized something.
Old and young, men and women,
Quickly drive somewhere
To the silent horizon
Till they vanish…
And the moment they are gone
I’ll be thinking
“All of them are going home…
Each to his own home…”
I’m drained and so vacant now
I cannot explain it…
My heart is so naked that
I feel it bleed.
At once I am drained of life,
I’m dying on my own…
Can anyone save me here
And tell me where’s my home?
Precious life is what I’ve got
But still it is of no good
‘cause I don’t belong to anywhere,
To anything or anyone here.
My precious soul is full of woe
‘cause no-one equals to me…
I’ve left my home once upon a long ago
And roam for centuries.
Eyes and faces, smiles and tears,
Quickly pass me by
To the silent horizon
Till they vanish…
And the moment they are gone
I’ll be thinking
“All of them are going home…
Each to his own home…”
I’m drained and so vacant now
I cannot explain it…
My heart is so naked that
I feel it bleed.
At once I am drained of life,
I’m dying on my own…
Can anyone save me here
And tell me where’s my home?
All I need and pray for
Is a little drop of power
To hold on my way
Day after day.
O, my god, give me strength
To forgive my enemies
As you forgive me
Every day.
I’ll walk through the tempest now (to my home)
And fight through the fire… (to my home)
I’ll take every test you give (to my home)
And carry on.
Someday you will lay me down, (to my home)
You’ll silence my heartbeat (to my home)
And take me away from here (to my home)
To my only home…
I’ll walk through the tempest now
And fight through the fire… (to my home)
I’ll take every test you give
And carry on. (to my home)
Someday you will lay me down,
You’ll silence my heartbeat (to my home)
And take me away from here
To my only home… (to my home)
All I need and pray for
Is a little drop of power
To hold on my way
The sun is shining brightly
There are no clouds in the sky
People talking outside
An' the traffic going by
The aeroplanes fly
Home is where I'm gonna be
Christmas
Take my word an' I'll be there
I won't let you down
Buy in all the fare
That you think we need
'Cos I'll be comin' home
It's where I'm gonna be
This Christmas
With the kids and you and me
Having all the fun
That we used to share
I'll be there 'cos home is where I'm gonna be.
Tryin', tryin', tryin', tryin'
Hopin', hopin'.
INSTRUMENTAL
I got the ticket for the aeroplane
All I need now is a line from you
Made some money and
I don't feel so stranded
My whole world is lookin' brighter.
Home is where I'm gonna be
This Christmas
All those promises before
This one is for sure
I guess you know the score
Tired of being alone
Winter here came so luscious, winter here and the snows
You?re wanting and waiting forever, wanting to feel home
So what on earth in all the world has happened to this here
As in your world, you can repair and will get back home again
You?ll get back home again
Can you see all the cards here, can you see how its done
Fingers deceive forever, fingers know the codes
So what on earth in all the world has happened to this here
As in your world you can repair and will get back home again
You?ll get back home again
So what on earth in all the world has happened to this here
As in your world you can repair and will get back home again
I've raised the dust on ten thousand streets
worshipped the earth with the soles of my feet
I've roamed around all the days of my life
headed for someone, somewhere to arrive
I want to go home,
but home has gone away
young head foolish, young heart unwise
I left my home for the world outside
much too late I realized
my home was always in your eyes
I'm here one minute then the next I'm gone
when I get that feeling then I'm moving on
don't feel much like hangin' around
cos what I'm looking for, I ain't found
country lanes and city lights
they smell so sweet and they shine so bright
there's so much in this world to see
and every place is calling me, but
I want to go home,
