On My Way Back Home

(words & music Joe Pereira)

As I travel upon the path
to the promised land
a place to really call home
Sentimental in many ways
nonetheless I’ll try
try try to get home

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
I’m going home
I’m going home
On my way back home
On my way back home
I’m on my way
I’m on my way back home

I can see it in my mind
warm and pleasant land
where the skies are always blue
where the mountains and rivers dance
and in the spring the land
is colourful in bloom

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
I’m going home
I’m going home
On my way back home
On my way back home
I’m on my way
I’m on my way back home

trying to move along
trying to say goodbye
trying to live and to forget
and never question why

Maybe it’s just an illusion
the price I have to pay
for staying away for so long
maybe when reality
hovers over me
I’ll know if I belong

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
I’m going home
I’m going home
On my way back home
On my way back home
I’m on my way
I’m on my way back home

trying to move along
trying to say goodbye
trying to live and to forget
and never question why
