Choirboys – Going Home (For Cathal) lyrics

You're the one
Left behind
Something there that's pulling me away
Empty houses, empty streets
Mother's cooking apple pie and washing on the line

But I've lived a dreamer and I've lived in hope
But I don't want to stay here on my own

I'm going home? you stand there on your own
I'm going home? you stand there all alone

Well I'm standing at the station
With a suitcase in my hand
A ticket and a promise, just a vision of a man
And I think about it baby
Yes I think about that dream
And I hope that someday, somehow I will get it right
Get it right

I'm going home? you stand there on your own
I'm going home? you stand there, you stand there
You stand there all alone

And I wonder what I'm doing here tonight
I'm sure they'll give me back one some day
And you know that I have tried to say the truth
I say you're not alone
Get it right, get it right

Yeah? all right
Yeah? all right

And I wonder what we're doing here tonight
We say we'll get it back one some day
You know that I have tried to say the truth
You see you're not alone

Yes I'm going home
Yeah I'm going home

You stand there, you stand there, you stand all alone
Don't you know I'm going home?
You stand there, you stand there, you stand all alone
Ah yeah
You stand there, you stand there, you stand all alone
And I'm coming home Mama
