Elton John - Home Again lyrics

I’m countin' on a memory to get me outta here
I’m waitin' for the fog around this
Spooky little town to clear
All this time I’ve spent
Bein' someone else’s friend
Just one more time, for old time’s sake
I’d like to go back home again

The world had seven wonders once upon a time
It’s sure enough the favoured
Nations aided their decline
And all around me
I’ve seen times like it was back when
But like back then
I’d say amen if I could get back home again

If I could go back home
If I could go back home
If I’d never left, I’d never have known
We all dream of leavin'
But wind up in the end
Spendin' all our time tryin' to
Get back home again

Could've been a jailbreak and
The spotlight hittin' me
Or was I just some nightclub singer
Back in 1963 in the old part of Valencia
On the coast of Spain
Never tirin' once of hearin' songs
About goin' home again

If I could go back home
If I could go back home
If I’d never left, I’d never have known
We all dream of leavin'
But wind up in the end
Spendin' all our time tryin' to
Get back home again

If I could go back home
If I could go back home
If I’d never left, I’d never have known
We all dream of leavin'
But wind up in the end
Spendin' all our time tryin' to
Get back home again
