I'm On My Way Back Home
Partridge Family · Sound Magazine [1971]
chased all my rainbows to the end
I wish I knew then what I know today,
I'm on my way back home again
Love --
that's what's waitin' for me,
that's where I've got to be
Just to look in your eyes,
feel your lips touchin' mine
CHORUS:
I'm on my way back home, gonna fly
I'm on my way back home, gonna fly
I'm on my way, I'm on my way back home to you
I went to look for Mister Happiness, only to find he wasn't in
Wouldn't you know I had the wrong address, I'm on my way back home again
Love --
that's what's waitin' for me,
that's where I've got to be
Just to look in your eyes,
feel your lips touchin' mine
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
I remember when you told me I'd return
You knew even then something I had to learn
It's so far and yet it's right there where you live
It's something that you get only when you give and it's
Love --
that's what's waitin' for me,
that's where I've got to be
Just to look in your eyes,
feel your lips touchin' mine
CHORUS
REPEAT AND FADE
