Lyrics

Could a feeling be so wrong
Why I left you for so long
Home, though I miss you more each day
There was nothing you could say
I had to go my way
Show them I was older now
And not some toy that they could play with
Tell me how, everything I need today is

Lost only traces on faces
That won't remember me now
Yes I'm going back there somehow
Lost where my memory waits for me
Home is where I belong
But it's not the same when you're gone
With a lifetime passing by
Every question asking why

Home, if I ever feel you're mine
We will meet again in time
Just realise that I'm old enough to know by now
That foolish dreams don't last forever
Funny how, looking back I thought I'd never

See only traces on faces
That won't remember me now
Yes I'm going back there somehow
Lost where my memory waits for me
Home is where I belong
But it's not the same when you're gone
(My heart takes me
Home, been so long
They won't remember me now)
Yes I'm going back there somehow
(Lonely road that leads me nowhere
Home, I was wrong
Home is where I belong)
But it's not the same when you're gone
(Can't replace what waits for me there)

Home, if I ever feel you're mine
We will meet again in time
Just realise that I'm old enough
To know by now
That foolish dreams don't last for ever
Funny how
Sometimes I just wonder whether
Looking back I thought I'd never

See only traces on faces
That won't remember me now
Yes I'm going back there somehow
Lost where my memory waits for me
Home is where I belong
But it's not the same when you're gone
