The Way Back Home

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was lost in the city when i chanced on a man

Who said he was jesus as he held out his hand

I tossed him a quarter and said, "i'm your biggest fan"

"do you know the way back home?"

And the planet sits waiting for this man to appear

Who will solve all our problems and make everything clear

Cause we are all prisoners of apathy and fear

And we lost the way back home

We lost the way back home

Find the way back home

Find a way back home

Find the way back home

But there is no one coming with great things to say

There's no simple solutions, there's no last judgment day

There's only the trying to find a better way

To look for the way back home

To look for the way back home

Find the way back home

Find a way back home

Find the way back home

Find a way back home

Find the way back home

I'm walking on pavement where old illusions fall

I'm struck by a sadness

Lonely here inside these walls

Find a way back home

Find a way back home

Find a way back home

Find a way back home

Find a way back home

Find a way back home

And the man who was jesus lit his last cigarette

And he spoke in a whisper with a voice of regret

"you've all heard the answer, but you're not listening yet

Love is the way back home. . ."
