Returning Home

I saw the ruins once the smoke cleared

(Once upon returning home)

A touch of sadness but no fear

(Once upon returning home)

I don't know what I cried about but

Reality removed all doubt

I felt warm but all alone

(Once upon returning home)

Returning homeOnce this place was paradise

Green and blue colors of the sea

It's still alive so it shall return

Eventually, oh, oh, ohThe sacred builders, the chosen ones

Have learned to live and let live

Once you take what's there to share

You've got to give, you got to giveOh, don't let the changes get you down

You'll see the this world turned upside down

If you listen, you'll hear the word

When it comes around, when it comes around, yeahI saw the ruins once the smoke cleared

(Once upon returning home)

A touch of sadness but no fear

(Once upon returning home)

Yeah, I don't know what I cried about but

Reality removed all doubt

I felt warm but all alone

(Once upon returning home)Look around, there's work to do

A new life for the chosen few

The world sings in the same key

Sweet harmonyJust when you thought you had it made

With fool's gold the road was paved

And circles get so big and wide

You can't see to the other side, other sideOh, the long journey wore me down

To see this world turned upside down

There'll be some time before things settle downI saw the ruins once the smoke cleared

(Once upon returning home)

A touch of sadness but no fear

(Once upon returning home)

I don't know what I cried about but

Reality removed all doubt

I felt warm but all alone

(Once upon returning home)

Returning home, yeahOh, don't let the changes get you down, no

You'll see the world turned upside down

If you listen, you'll hear the word

When it comes around, when it comes aroundI saw the ruins once the smoke cleared

(Once upon returning home)

A touch of sadness but no fear

(Once upon returning home)

I don't know what I cried about but

Reality removed all doubt

I felt warm but all alone

(Once upon returning home)

Returning home, yeah(Coming home)

I saw the ruins

(Coming home)

I saw the smoke clear

(Coming home)

I felt the world turn upside down

(Coming home)(Coming home)

(Coming home)

(Coming home)
