Lyrics Going Home - Jack Savoretti

Going Home

Excuse me while I disappear
I think I’ve overstayed my welcome here
So now I think it’s best I go before my heart turns to stone
Been traveling a hundred years
Thought I was close but I was nowhere near
When I asked myself, «Where do you wanna go?»
I guess I’ve never known
Oh, but baby, now I think I’ve really noticed
I’ve been looking for a better day for my great escape
Never afraid of going alone
I’m still looking for a better day for my great escape
Only now it’s a better way to get back home
Excuse me while I interrupt
All this noise and all this fuss
Working night and day
And all the songs I love to play
They take me further away
Further from the ones I love
I don’t know what I was thinking of
When I told myself, «Go out and chase your dreams
And find out what they mean»
Oh, now I can’t wait to quit this crazy scene, hey
I’ve been looking for a better day for my great escape
Never afraid of going alone
I’m still looking for a better day for my great escape
Only now it’s a better way to get back home
And all the while, the burden of my choice
Defines the man I am
And all the pain I feel is in my voice
I hope you understand
I hope you understand, hey
I’ve been looking for a better day for my great escape
Never afraid to go in alone
I’m still looking for a better day for my great escape
Only now it’s a better way to get back home, hey
I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home, hey
I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home, hey
I’m going home
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Hey, go
I’m going home
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I’m going home, hey
I’m going home, hey
I’m going home
