"Going Home" by Leo Sayer

Writers: Leo Sayer & Alan Tarney

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
