Home Again

Lyrics

Despite the land, a thousand miles Your smile had reached an all-time low And all the curtains drew on my old street again I chanced upon some photographs That told the story of our class Of basking in the promises of future days I didn't mean to let you know I accidentally dialled the number The words you heard were someone else The circumstance, it took me under Time and time again I tried But all the buttons pressed were brokе To make it through to your receivеr I can't find the words I spoke The northern clouds are only smoke I'm through But any time soon I guess I'll find a way to ride a train back home again Outside the paper stands are blowing and I'm down Until the silence of the engine turns to steam and then We're home again Stumble into folks I'd swerve The empty seats are all reserved And conversations limited, unpleasantly I stare into my suitcase, hold My cup of tea's already cold And sad beyond the scape and disco memories We couldn't wait til Saturday To knock on doors and run away And summer went beyond us all In Banky fields we knew the answer Only problem was the question We didn't even need to ask So simple in our own conception But that was all so long ago In a place I used to know so well But any time soon I guess I'll find a way to ride a train back home again Outside the paper stands are blowing and I'm down Until the silence of the engine turns to steam and then We're home again
