Home

Home sweet home
When will I reach?
Alas, I'll sing
and join in the praise

Though the journey be long
Still I press on
My roads may be rough
But I'll march on steady

For the beauty of the market
Does not keep the shopper
He takes this and that
And yet runs off

For at home is gold
Splendor untold
This kingdom on hold
My spirit so bold

Cries of war
Splashes of blood
Tears unstopped
Hopes destroyed

Yet I follow the star
To the land of promise
For my time is short
On this lonely sweet world

For at home is gold
Splendor untold
This kingdom on hold
My spirit so bold

All you see
is but vanity
For as smoke truly
Shall they vapourise

But at home is gold
Splendor untold
This kingdom on hold
My spirit so bold

Known you a while

It's like I've known you a while
A stranger from within
Very familiar is your smile
Like no air in between

Thoughts deep in shadows
See you joyfully laugh
Mind deep and fallow
As a gentle lil calf

I think I've known you a while
Dejavu is far from this
Striding on river Nile
Is this a dreamy bliss

Like a bird in the cage
I write a lil page
Of a play on our stage
Where we'll never age

I know I know you for a while
Staggering blush filled with hope
Let's walk for just a mile
And I hope my heart will cope
