Home

Today's tune came about because I would rather simply be at home rather than in the office this morning. I hate cold starts to the day. But that said, gotta pay the bills some how. "Home" by Michael Buble tells the tale of someone wanting to follow a dream only to realise that they had given up way too much to do so. I guess, to quote Jon Oliva (of Savatage) "If standing on a dream isn't what it seams could we claim a dream refused"? I wonder...

Ever realise that at times you are the most loneliest when surrounded by a lot of people. I usually use large gatherings as me time, funny how it takes so much less effort when there are just more people about.

So as the summer days pass and the wintery ones begin....

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky, I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home


Home, not really sure where that is I guess.
