Home Again from Dreamland by Eliot Wilder

I had been out a-wanderin'
For many a year
Saw some new and strange places
Some that filled me with fear
I had wandered far and wide
Lost track of where I'd been
Thought about all the people I once knew
From way back when

Sometimes I get nostalgic
Then I remember why I left
There was nothing to hold on to
I felt so bereft
I had to go where the air was fresh
And the landscape unknown
But once I got out in the big old world
I just felt so alone

Home again
I just can't wait to be
Home again
Everyone I know is there
Home Again
I just can't wait to be home
I just can't wait to be home

I searched for you like a man obsessed
Saw your face on every train
I held onto your letters
My salvation and my bane
What's the point of all this, I thought
When I could be back in your arms
I'd been drawn by the lure of the new
But it had lost all its charms

Home is all I really desire
Home by my very own home-fire
Home is where I truly belong
Home for all my whole lifelong

I had a lot of big ideas
'Bout how my life would go
Thought that I would travel the world
With nothing in tow
Believed that I would be free of my past
And all the bad things I had done
But then I turned 'round and went back home
To face everything under the sun
