Home Again by Elton John

I'm counting on a memory
To get me out of here

I'm waiting for the fog around
This spooky little town to clear
All this time I spent being
Someone else's friend
Just one more time
For old time's sake
I'd like to go back home again

The world had seven wonders
Once upon a time

It's sure enough the favored nations
Aided their decline

And all around me
I've seen times
Like it was back when

But like back then
I'd say a men
If I could get back home again

If I could go back home

If I could go back home

If I'd never left
I'd never have known

We all dream of leaving
But wind up in the end

Spending all our time
Trying to get back home again

Could have been a jailbreak
And a spotlight hitting me

Or was I just some nightclub singer
Back in 1963

In the old part of Valencia
On the coast of Spain

Never tiring once of hearing songs
About going home again

If I could go back home

If I could go back home

If I'd never left
I'd never have known

We all dream of leaving
But wind up in the end

Spending all our time
Trying to get back home again
