I've been many places I've traveled 'round the world Always on the search for something new But what does it matter When all the roads I've crossed Always seem to reback to you
Old familiar faces Everyone you meet Following the ways of the land Cobblestones and lanterns Lining every street Calling me to come home again
Dancing in the moonlight Singing in the rain Oh, it's good to be back home again Laughing in the sunlight Running down the lane Oh, it's good to be back home again
When you play with fire Sometimes you get burned It happens when you take a chance or two But time is never wasted When you've lived and learned And in time, it all comes back to you
And when I got weary I'd sit a while and rest Memories invading my mind All the things I'd treasured The ones I'd loved the best Were the things that I'd left behind
