When I was younger
My life was torn asunder
I was carried far away
Now somewhere in the distance
I feel a strange insistence
I long to be there once again
The day is drawing nearer
The time has come to leave here
The feeling just keeps getting stronger every day
So I pray for the moment when I'll be with you
And all that we hoped for is all comin' true
When the time we've spent waiting is finally through
I'll be home again
I can still remember
Days that never ended
Standin' on a distant shore
With every raindrop fallin'
I hear the thunder callin'
Like so many times before
Sometimes in the darkness
I hear what my heart says
Maybe one day I'll know what that feeling's for
So I wait for the moment when I'll be with you
And all that we hoped for is all comin' true
When the time we've spent waiting is finally through
I'll be home again
When you're out there on your own
It can chill you to the bone
There's a cold wind blowin'
But it feels good knowin'
The worst is over now - I'm finally goin' home
So I pray for the moment when I'll be with you
And all that we hoped for is all comin' true
When the time we've spent waiting is finally through
I'll be home again
It's getting stronger
Can't wait any longer
I'll be home again
