Lyrics

Shadows fall on an open door
Smiling faces welcome me home
It has been so long
Life has been so cruel
I’m going home to the fields of my youth
To the places I remember
Colours of autumn hue
I’m going home I’m going home
Where the memories dance in the morning sun
Life goes on
Lane to the old farm is overgrown
Slates are falling from the roof
And the rain is coming down
Against a harvest moon
I’m going home I’m going home
Where the memories dance in the morning sun
Life goes on
time will take its toll one day you will go
And the best that I can hope for is a memory to linger
And if I should ever fall further than I’ve been before
I will crawl on my hands an knees
to reach your back door
I’m going home I’m going home
Where the memories dance in the morning sun
Life goes on
Home I’m going home
