(Verse 1)
I was listening to the ocean,
I saw a face in the sand.
But when I picked up, it had vanished away from my hands, ahhhh.
I had a dream I was seven,
Climbing my way in a tree.
I saw piece of Heaven waiting impatient for me, ahhhh.
(Pre-Chorus)
Well I was running far away, 
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
And, I was dancing in the rain,
I felt alive and I can't complain.
(Chorus)
But now take me home, take me home where I belong,
I can't take it anymore...
(Verse 2)
I was painting a picture,
The picture was a painting of you.
And, for a moment I thought you were here but then again it wasn't true, ahhh.
And all this time I had been lying,
Oh lying in secret to myself.
I'd been, putting sorrow on the farthest place, on my shelf, lah-dee-dahh
(Pre-Chorus)
And I was running far away,
Would I run off the world someday?
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
And, I was dancing in the rain,
I felt alive and I can't complain.
(Chorus)
Well now take me home, take me home where I belong,
I got no other place to go.
Now, take me home, take me home where I belong,
I got no other place to go.
Now, take me home, take me home where I belong,
I can't take it anymore...
(Run up Chorus)
But I kept running,
For a soft place to fall.
And I kept running,
For a soft place to fall.
And I kept running,
For a soft place to fall,
And I kept running,
For a soft place to fall...
(Pre- Chorus, Chorus)
Well I was running far away,
Would I fall off the world someday?
Now take me home, take me home where I belong.
I got no other place to go.
Now take me home, take me home where I belong
I got no other place to go
Now take me home, home where I belong! Oh, Oh!
Now take me home, home where I belong! Oh, Oh!
Now take me home, home where I belong! Oh, Oh!
Now take me home, home where I belong!
I can't take it anymore....
