about

A song describing the bittersweet feeling of returning home after an adventure. Also inspired by the existential dread raised by winter evening commutes.

lyrics

There at the day's end
When the light starts to fail
The sun replaced by headlamps
We'll be on our way
Home again, home again
We'll be on our way
Home again, home again

We'll be on our way
Home again, home again
We'll be on our way
Home again, home again

Distracted by sirens
I nearly lost my way
Flashing lights all burning
Holes in the mundane grey

Do you know your way home
Like I know my way home

Home again
Going home again
Home again
I'm going home

Though it feels it's been ages
And in spite of all the changes
Following a worn road I know
I'm on my way
Home again, home again
I'm on my way
Home again, home again
I'm on my way
Home again, I'm going home
