Way Home

Got to find my way home.
Got to find my way back home.
Got to find my way home.
Such a long time since I've gone away.
The trees were green but the city scene
Pulled me in and now I've lost my way.

Highway pass beneath my feet now.
Day light stretches on and on.
In my dreams the future is the past now.

I'm on a quest for the very best
Of what this town could never offer me.
For I have felt the turning of the earth

Beneath my feet and lord, it frightens me.
Sun set radiating in the distance.
Night falls but I will not fear.
Star dust; we shoot across the sky and disappear.
I have seen her standing at the crossroads.
Talking to a passer-by.
Wrestling with a flame that never seems to die.

The other night I had a dream
That you had died and left me here alone.
And when I woke the traffic spoke
And I realized it was high time I be headed home.
