lyrics

GOING HOME

After ten long years in paradise
From the Harbour Bridge to Rome
He picks up the old suitcase - destination home
With an old head on his shoulders
And nothing more to say
He takes one last look behind him
Swears he won't be back someday

Journey through the night
From the darkness into light, going home
He's gonna sail across the oceans
Free all his emotions, going home

Memories come and go
Some still warm to the touch
Dreams can be reality, sentiment don't mean much
The sweet sound of home when he calls
So far away but then so near, and he says
"Mirror, mirror on the wall. Why the hell am I still here?"

Chorus

After ten long years in paradise
From the Harbour Bridge to Rome
He picks up the old suitcase - destination home

Chorus

When I'm driving down the road
No way, nowhere to go, take me home
Put the baggage in the boot
And we'll take the easy route, going home
