Home (Michael Bublé Cover)
Westlife · Back Home [2007]
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmm...
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
I've got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far, from where you are
I gotta come home
Let me go home
I've had my run, baby I'm done
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
This was not your dream
But you always believed, in me
Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
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'll all be alright
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home
