When the evening falls and the daylight is fading,
from within me calls - could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray, then it holds me completely
close to home - I cannot say

close to home feeling so far away
As I walk 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

Forever searching; never right,
I am lost in oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories
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
