lyrics

This long road ahead of me leads to somewhere new
And though great things lie ahead, it doesn't stop me from yearning for you
My leaves reach up, up to the sky, up to the sunlight
But my anchor stays the same and I
I stay connected, I feel the pull

Oh darling if I ask you, please
Won't you take me home? Won't you take me home?
It's been too long since I've been gone
And I am, tired in my bones, I'm tired in my bones
I don't know how to carry on so won't you
Won't you take me home? Won't you take me home?

When I've been away a while, know you're in my thoughts
When my body's somewhere else, know my heart is entirely yours
You are imprinted upon my soul and will be forever
So it hurts to think that I might fade within your memory
As I will love you just the same

Oh darling if I ask you, please
Won't you take me home? Won't you take me home?
It's been too long since I've been gone
And I am tired in my bones, I'm tired in my bones
I don't know how to carry on so won't you
please just take me home? Won't you take me home?

Oh my love, will you wait for me?
No matter where I lay my head, you're in my dreams
I hear you call me back across the endless sea
Yea I hear you

Oh darling if I ask you, please
Won't you take me home? Won't you take me home?
It's been too long since I've been gone
And I am tired in my bones, I'm tired in my bones
I don't know how to carry on so won't you
Won't you take me home? Won't you take me home?
