Em C
When the evening falls
D Bm
And the daylight is fading,
C Am
From within me calls
D Bm
Could it be I am sleeping?
Em C
For a moment I stray,
D Bm
Then it holds me completely
C D Bm
Close to home - I cannot say
C D Eno3 (022400)
Close to home feeling so far away
As I walk the room there before me a shadow
From another world, where no other can follow
Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over
Close to home - I cannot say
Close to home feeling so far away
D G D G C D
Forever searching; never right,
G C D
I am lost in oceans of night.
G C D Bm
Forever hoping I can find memories
C D G
Those memories I left behind
Even though I leave will I go on believing
That this time is real - am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through,
Never knowing the reason
I am home - I know the way
I am home - feeling oh, so far away
