[Verse]
I'm coming home, and how the years have flown,
For far too long I've been a stranger in a strange town,
So far away, from all the friends I loved,
Now I'll go back to my green hills, those friendly smiles.
[Chorus]
For the boys and girls, who crossed the ocean wide,
And leave their friends and all their loved ones on the other side,
So take my home, where I belong,
I'm dreaming dreams of home for much too long.
[Verse]
How things have changed, now nothing seems the same,
For I have been away too long, I've just myself to blame,
And Mary dear, how could you marry him,
Was then you shattered all my hopes and all my dreams.
[Chorus]
For the boys and girls, who crossed the ocean wide,
And leave their friends and all their loved ones on the other side,
So take me home, where I belong,
I'm dreaming dreams of home for much too long.
[Verse]
I remember, well, that rainy day, the day I came back home,
I never thought that I could be a stranger in my town,
And as the rain ran down my face, I cried my tears alone,
For here I was a stranger in my own hometown.
[Chorus]
For the boys and girls, who crossed the ocean wide,
And leave their friends and all their loved ones on the other side,
So take me home, where I belong,
I'm dreaming dreams of home for much too long.
[Chorus]
For the boys and girls, who crossed the ocean wide,
And leave their friends and all their loved ones on the other side,
So take me home, where I belong,
I'm dreaming dreams of home for much too long.
