Home lyrics

When I came to this town



I was not yet a man



Still green from the grass I once played in



A mere twenty-one years



With a lot left to learn



Far away from my home by the ocean







A naive little boy who got caught in a trap



Of too many good times and diversions



Well I slipped and I fell



And I lost who I was



But I cannot return to my island







Oh I'm lost and I'm scared 



And I long for my home



For my family and friends on the island



But I cannot return



'Till I find who I am



Perhaps I'll go home when I'm sleeping.







And the lightning does crash 



And the thunder it rolls



As the storm comes across



From the harbour



WHere the cruise ships are tied 



With the big corporate Yachts



But no fishging boats roll



On the whitecaps







So I'm watching the storm 



Is it calling me back



I can feel it well up from inside me



And it's guiding my hand



With my pen or the strings



And it's leading me back to my island







Oh I'm lost and I'm scared 



And I long for my home



For my family and friends on the island



But it won't be long now



'Till I'm given the choice



So until I can choose I'll keep going
