THE CLARKS LYRICS - On My Way Back Home

"On My Way Back Home"



The expressway ends

In front of me

I've been here before

I was too close to see

Well, I'm going back

To my hometown

Well I won't stay long

Because I can't sit down



Well I used to say

That I hate this place

It was a different time

And a different face

Then a couple of years

Caught in between

You'd think I'd learn

You'd think I'd seen

On my way back home

How's it feel to be alone?

Do you wanna be alone?



Well I'm set in my ways

The way I live my life

I never get to low

I never get to high

I'm not too far gone

But I'm not all there

If I learned at all

I learned in there

On my way back home

How's it feel to be alone?

Do you wanna be alone?



On my way back to Narrow's (?) farm

I can't believe that I've been gone this long

Well I'm settling back for another night

And I'll strum on my porch in the pale moon light

I don't mind it here in the cool night air

Because I know someday I'll be somewhere



On my way back home

On my way back home

How's it feel to be alone?

Do you wanna be alone?
