When the evening falls
and the daylight is fading
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray
then it holds me completely
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away

As I walk the room
there before me a shadow
From another world
where no other can follow
Carry me to my own
To where I can cross over
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away

Forever searching, never right
I am lost in oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind

Even though I leave
will I go on believing
that this time is real
- am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through
Never knowing the reason
I am home, I know the way
I am home, feeling oh, so far away

When the evening falls and the daylight is fading
From within me calls - could it be I am sleeping
For a moment I stray, then it holds me completely

Close to home
I cannot say
Close to home
Feeling so far away

As I walk the road there before me a shadow
From another world, where no other can follow
Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over

Forever searching
Never right, I am lost
In oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind

Even though I leave will I go on believing
That this time is real, am I lost in this feeling
Like a child passing through, never knowing the reason

I am home
I know the way
I am home
Feeling oh so far away

When the evening falls
And the daylight is fading,
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray,
Then it holds me completely
Close to home - I cannot say
Close to home feeling so far away

As I walk the room there before me a shadow
From another world, where no other can follow
Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over
Close to home - I cannot say
Close to home feeling so far away

Forever searching; never right,
I am lost in oceans of night.
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind

Even though I leave will I go on believing
That this time is real - am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through,
Never knowing the reason
I am home - I know the way
I am home - feeling oh, so far away
