Far From The Home I Love

How can I hope to make you understand

Why I do what I do,

Why I must travel to a distant land,

Far from the home I love.

Once I was happily content to be

As I was, where I was,

Close to the people who are close to me,

Here in the home I love.

Who could see that a man could come

Who would change the shape of his dreams.

Helpless now I stand with him,

Watching older dreams grow dim.

Oh, what a melancholy choice this is,

Wanting home, wanting him,

Closing my heart to ev'ry hope but his,

Leaving the home I love,

There where my heart has settled long ago

I must go, I must go, I must go,

Who could imagine I'd be wand'ring so

Far from the home I love

Yet there with my love, I'm home.



How can she think we wouldn't understand

Why she does what she does,

Why she must travel to a distant land,

Far from the home she loves.

Once she was happily content to be

As she was, where she was,

Safe in the bosom to her family,

Here in the home she loves.

Who could see that a man could come

Who would change the shape of my dreams.

Helpless now she stands with him,

Watching older dreams grow dim.

Oh, what a melancholy choice this is,

Wanting home, wanting him,

Closing her heart to ev'ry hope but his,

Leaving the home she loves,

There where her heart has settled long ago

She must go, she must go, she must go,

Who could imagine she'd be wand'ring so

Far from the home she loves

Yet there with her love, she's home.
