I was listenin' to the ocean I saw a face in the sand When I picked it up Then it vanished away from my hands, dah I had a dream, I was seven Climbin' my way in a tree I saw a piece of Heaven Waitin' in patience for me, dah And I was runnin' far away Would I run off the world someday? Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain But no, take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take this anymore I was painting a picture The painting was a picture of you And for a moment I thought you were here But then again, it wasn't true, dah And all this time I have been lyin' Lyin' in secret to myself La-di-da And I was runnin' far away Would I run off the world someday? Nobody knows, nobody knows And I was dancing in the rain I felt alive and I can't complain But no, take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take this anymore No, take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take this anymore But I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall But I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall But I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall But I kept runnin' for a soft place to fall And I was runnin' far away Would I run off the world someday? But no, take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take this anymore No, take me home Take me home where I belong I can't take this anymore
