On My Way Back Home

(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
