walking in the shadows of mankind

drinking from the dust in the streets

living through theseasons having 1000 reasons

trying to makeends meet

flipping coins and lights in september

dancing with the leaves of july

february pavements seemto hold resentments

against me as time’s flying by

gotta get home gotta get home in december

when the lights are shining bright

gotta get back to whati remember

and then everything’s alright

tellmy mum i’m coming home in december

i have seen the eiffel tour in paris

and ihave seen the squares of new york

i been sleeping nextto towers singing songs for hours

finding comfort in being a dork

playing with the whales in the ocean

climbing on a mountain with blue eyes

and under porches and bridges i’ve learned that all theriches

are waiting for me in disguise

i want to go back i need to go back home

my friendsare waiting for me to come back home

andeverybody’s there and we have things to share

and thefamily prayer something is in the wind and iknow for sure

deep down in the core now it’s time togo

to my loved ones i need to go back home
