I'm a chap who loves to write songs and records them. I'm nowhere near as prolific as I could be, mainly due to finding it hard to motivate myself sometimes.
How long must I skip to the rhythm?
Seek out the new; always find the old with a€˜em
If I give you my all will you say Ia€™m forgiven?
Or must I find my own way home?
I went to a temple on a mountain high
They taught me to lie and they taught me to cry
Then they threw-a me out with mud in my eye
Ia€™ve got find my own way home
I met a Sannyasi by a forest stream
He taught me to feel and he taught me to dream
I looked within and couldna€™t find the Supreme
So I left to find my own way home
How long must I yearn for the sun
Long for the day when the world was begun
If I give you my all will you give me just one
And help me find my own way home?
I met a young woman by a banyan tree
She said she would love me indefinitely
Well we lasted sixty years and then she died on me
Ia€™ve got to find my own way home
I met an old man, he said listen here
Try some of this, and he gave me a beer
So I lived by the bottle for fifty years
And left to find my own way home
Ia€™m going home!
How long must I dance to the tune?
And follow the sun and follow the moon
If I give you my all will you tell me right soon
That youa€™ll help me find my own way home?
I went down to the sand and watched the sea
Thought about the way things used to be
I wish the waves would carry me
To the place I used to call my home
Therea€™s a voice I hear when Ia€™m on the shore
Or stop for a second with my hand on the door
Ita€™s a voice Ia€™ve heard a million times before
And I know ita€™s come to guide me home
How long must I skip to the rhythm?
Seek out the new; always find the old with a€˜em
If I give you my all will you say Ia€™m forgiven?
Or must I find my own way home?
I went to the home of a lady in white
She showed me the light and she told me whata€™s right
We stayed up talking till the end of the night
I think Ia€™ve found my own way home
Ia€™m learning all about my family tree
With half a million other searchers like me
Do I think ita€™s right? Well definitely
I went and found my own way home
I went and found my own way home
OK, you came and took me home
