Searchlights, rain on the road,
|
Waiting for the airport limousine,
|
Your time in this foreign land,
|
Is nearly over, I'll never forget how
|
|
Last night, after he called,
|
You held me like you'd never let me go,
|
But your eyes are happy now,
|
And you are beautiful, you're ready to leave me, Homeward, back to your world,
|
Back to the one who is there,
|
Go now, but go in love,
|
For it's the only way;
|
|
And you'll be crying, laughing,
|
Half a world away,
|
You'll be crying, laughing,
|
For the love we have,
|
When you go away... Long ride, holding her hand,
|
Looking all the words we cannot speak,
|
One mile to the boulevard,
|
And the aeroplane that's waiting to take you Homeward, back to your land,
|
Back to the one who is there,
|
Go now, but go in love,
|
For it's the only way;
|
|
And you'll be crying, laughing,
|
Half a world away,
|
You'll be crying, laughing,
|
For the love we have,
|
But you must go,
|
Crying, laughing,
|
Half a world away,
|
You'll be crying, laughing,
|
Don't forget me love,
|
When you go away...
