I Want to Go Home

by Ben Brookes

on The Motor Car & the Weather Balloon (2017)

[Spoken]: Mornin' sir — can you get me back home?

[Verse 1]
Come on, slow this one down
Couldn't find my way back to town
And come on then, stop this right now
I just couldn't seem to find my way down

[Hook]
And while something still's holding me back
I couldn't seem to find the right track
Y'know, something still's holding me down
And I couldn't find my way back to town

[Chorus]
Because no-one seemed to know the way back to my house
I want to go home, I don't want to stay out
I just want to go home
Where the action is where I can roam the street
Where everything in front of me was out of my reach
Oh, I want to go home, home

[Verse 2]
Alright then, I know how that sounds
Because no-one seemed to know what I'd found
I just couldn't wait to have you back round

[Hook]
And while something still's holding me back
I couldn't seem to find the right track
Y'know, something still's holding me down
I couldn't find my way back to town

[Chorus]
‘Cause no-one seemed to know the way back to my house
I want to go home, I don't want to stay out
I just want to go home
Where the action is where I can roam the street
Where everything in front of me was out of my reach
Oh, I want to go home, home

[Outro]
You've had your third strike, now you're out
