Lyrics
Close To 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.
In my mind there’s a place where I belong
That I call home
Across the mountains
Thru the mist, into the trees
There it’s waiting for me
It seems like I
I’ve been searching all my life
For that place to find
Somehow, each time
When I’m getting close to home
I reach the unknown
And I follow the long, winding road
To where it leads I don’t know
So many times I’ve made it close to home
Oh, you might believe
That I’m just another one
Someone on the run
Oh, I could say I’m done
But the feeling’s too strong
So I’ll carry on
And I follow the long, winding road
To where it leads I don’t know
So many times I’ve made it close to home
Have I got the wrong directions?
It feels I’m going nowhere
So many times I’ve tried
To make it home
But still I roam
And I follow the long, winding road
To where it leads I don’t know
So many times I’ve made it close to home
Have I got the wrong directions?
It feels I’m going nowhere
So many times I’ve tried
To make it home
But still I roam
But still I roam
I'm so close to home
