Some live in a house on a hill
They wish they were someplace else
There's nobody there when the evening is still
Secrets with no one to tell

Some I have known
have a ship where they sleep
Voices are not soft
I said over oceans five fathoms deep
I can't find what they want to loose

Even now
I'm alone
I've always known
With you
I am home

Some live in towns
Cardboard shadowed concrete
All blistered, and dusseled at night
They search for the colour
They can never quite find
‘Cuz it's all white on white

Even now
I'm alone
I've always known
With you
I am home

For me there's a glimpse
Of a smile on your face
A touch of your hands
An honest embrace

Where I lay is you I keep
This changing world
Upon the sea
With you all I know is
I'm coming home
Coming home
