Lyrics

Going Home

S Snyers

Intro

The city lights have lost their glow
Something inside of me is telling me it’s time to go.
I am tired of struggling here on my own
I am weary, yes weary to the bone
I am going home, yes time to go home.

Where the open space stretches out for miles
And where gentle folks always greet you with a smile
She will be waiting for me with open arms,
Her tender body, soft and warm.
Ungungungluvu where the elephant used to roam

Interlude
Instrumental solo until….

Ungungungluvu where the elephant used to roam
A place called home, a place called home.

Interlude

Sid Snyers 2011
