Take me somewhere,
Anywhere,
Where I’ve never been before.
Some distant misty ocean,
Some foreign mystic shore.
Leave me high atop a mountain,
High as eagles dare to soar,
You can leave me behind,
Still I always will find my way home.
Take me somewhere,
Anywhere,
All the world may long to be.
The richest finest city,
The deepest calmest sea.
Where someone,
Anyone,
Would shout “At last I’m free!”
Me?
I will always be on my way home.
Here where the world seems so far away.
One street.
One tree.
One family.
Take me somewhere
Wonderful
Where adventures never cease.
The pyramids of Egypt,
The wonders that were Greece.
Take me to the streets of Paris,
A paradise for some.
But me,
I will always come home.
Somehow.
No matter where I’m lost,
I’ll come home.
