I'm counting on a memory
To get me out of here
I'm waiting for the fog
Around this spooky little town to clear
All this time I've spent
Being someone else's friend
Just one more time, for old time's sake
I'd like to go back home again
The world had seven wonders
Once upon a time
It's sure enough the favored nations
Aided their decline
And all around me I've seen times
Like it was back when
But like back then I'd say amen
If I could get back home again
If I could go back home,
If I could go back home
If I'd never left I'd never have known
We all dream of leaving
But wind up in the end
Spending all our time trying
To get back home again
Could have been a jailbreak
And the spotlight hitting me
Or was that just some night club singer
Back in nineteen sixty-three
In the old part of Valencia
On the coast of Spain
Never tiring once of hearing songs
About going home again
