Verse 1 How can I hope to make you understand
Why I do what I do
Why I must travel to a distant land
Far from the home I love
Once I was happily content to be
As I was, there I was
Close to the people who are close to me
Here in the home I love

Bridge Who would see that a man would come
That would change the shape of my dreams
Helpless now I stand with him
Watching all the dreams go dim

Verse 2 Oh what a melancholy choice this is
Wanting home, wanting him
Closing my heart to every hope but his
Needing the home I love
There where my heart has settled long ago
I must go, I must go
Who could imagine I'd be wandering so
Far from the home I love

Outro There with my love I'm home
