  • One, two, three

    All I believe in is a dream
    I haunt the Earth though I am fully seen
    In all my years I've never felt more sure than now
    Well, I got to get off this rock somehow

    I feel so homesick, where's my home?
    Where I belong, oh, where I was born
    I was told to go where the wind would blow
    And it blows away, away

    Mmh-uh

    Well, my eyes are full of stars
    But I just can't reach 'em
    Oh, how high they are
    I got to believe what I'm seeing maybe could come true, ooh
    But in a modern world that can be so hard to do

    I feel so homesick, where's my home?
    Where I belong, oh, where I was born
    I was told to go where the wind would blow
    And it blows away, away

    I wake up, rise to the sun
    I go to work and I come back home
    I wake up, rise to the sun
    I go to work and I come back home

    I come back home
    Ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
    Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
