Song by AURORA
I was listenin’ to the oceanI saw a face in the sandBut when I picked it upThen it vanished away from my hands, dah
I had a dream, I was sevenClimbin’ my way in a treeI saw a piece of HeavenWaitin’ in patience for me, dah
And I was runnin’ far awayWould I run off the world someday?Nobody knows, nobody knowsAnd I was dancing in the rainI felt alive and I can’t complain
But no, take me homeTake me home where I belongI can’t take it anymore
I was painting a pictureThe picture was a painting of youAnd for a moment I thought you were hereBut then again, it wasn’t true, dah
And all this time I have been lyin’Oh, lyin’ in secret to myselfI’ve been putting sorrow on the farthest place on my shelfLa-di-da
And I was runnin’ far awayWould I run off the world someday?Nobody knows, nobody knowsAnd I was dancing in the rainI felt alive and I can’t complain
But no, take me homeTake me home where I belongI got no other place to goNo, take me homeTake me home where I belongI got no other place to goNo, take me homeTake me home where I belongI can’t take it anymore
But I kept runnin’ for a soft place to fallAnd I kept runnin’ for a soft place to fallAnd I kept runnin’ for a soft place to fallAnd I kept runnin’ for a soft place to fall
And I was runnin’ far awayWould I run off the world someday?
But no, take me homeTake me home where I belongI got no other place to goNo, take me homeTake me home where I belongI got no other place to go
No, take me home, home where I belong, no, noNo, take me home, home where I belong, oh, oh, ohNo, take me home, home where I belong, no, noNo, take me home, home where I belongI can’t take it anymore
