I was listening to the ocean I saw a face in the sand But when I picked it up Then it vanished away from my hands - down I had a dream I was seven Climbing my way in a tree I saw a piece of heaven Waiting, impatient, for me
And I was running far away Would I run off the world someday? Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take it anymore
I was painting a picture The picture was a painting of you And for a moment I thought you were here But then again, it wasn't true - down And all this time I have been lying Oh, lying in secret to myself I've been putting sorrow on the farest place on my shelf La-di-da
And I was running far away Would I run off the world someday? Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain
But now take me home Take me home where I belong I got no other place to go Now take me home Take me home where I belong I got no other place to go Now take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take it anymore...
But I kept running for a soft place to fall And I kept running for a soft place to fall And I kept running for a soft place to fall And I kept running for a soft place to fall
And I was running far away Would I run off the world someday?
But now take me home Take me home where I belong I got no other place to go Now take me home Take me home where I belong I got no other place to go
Now take me home home where I belong, no, no Now take me home home where I belong, oh, oh Now take me home home where I belong, no, no Now take me home home where I belong I can't take it anymore
