Home (The Merv Griffin Show, 1983)
When I think of home
I think of a place where there's
Love overflowing;
I wish I was home,
I wish I was back there,
With the things I've been knowing.
Wind that makes tall grass bend into leaning,
And suddenly raindrops that fall
They have a meaning.
Sprinkling the scene, makes it all so clean.
And maybe there's a chance
For me to go back, now that I, I have some directions
And it sure would be nice to be back home,
Where there's love and affection.
And just maybe I can convince time
To slow up.
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up;
Time, please stay my friend, and let me start again...
Suddenly my world is gonna change it's face
But I know, I know where I'm going;
I have had my mind spun around and around
In space
And yet I've watched it growing.
Oh, I know you're listening Lord,
So won't you please try not to make it hard
to know I shouldn't believe everything
Everything that I see
Tell me, should I try and stay
Or maybe I should run away
Would it be better, better
Better better just to let things be?
Living here in this brand-new world
It might be a fantasy; Yes yeah it could be
But it taught me to love,
So I know that it's real, it's real, it's real to me...
And I've learned that we must look
Inside our hearts to find...
Yeah we gotta find
A world full of love
Like yours, like mine-
