Why Is Everybody Going Home

No crying no sighing I'm going home
I'm leaving no grieving I'm going home
And there's no one here
And there's nothing here gonna turn me around
Been a lifetime here full of doubt and fear
Been the talk of the town

I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home

I'm smiling I'm flying I'm going home
No sad face no suitcase I'm going home
And I'm thinking back
To the girl I left is she waiting for me
When I left my heart wasn't in my hands
Is she waiting home for me

When I get home
When I get home
When I get home

I know my friends will be there
And they will welcome me
I'll wash away these memories
From these dirty streets

When I get home
When I get home
When I get home
When I get home

I'm dreaming I'm scheming I'm going home
I'm racing time's wasting I'm going home
And I see my home and I see my dream
I see everyone there
Going right back down to when I was free
And I hadn't a care

I'm going home
I'm going home
I'm going home

And in my baby's eyes
I see joy and pride
Uncover all those lies
That I left behind

When I get home

And I see my home and I see my dream
I see everyone there
Going right back down to when I was free
And I hadn't a care
When I get home
