can't go home

 

She speaks to him in riddles
He answers her in rhyme
They've played their parts long enough
To know they've had their time
They wanted more

Than each could give
The more they lost

The less they lived
What's the point in holding on
When all you had is gone

 

When the lightening strikes you
The flame burns inside you
You can't look back now
Leave the ashes in the dust
Keep on going where you must

Cause you can't go home
No you can't go home

You can't go home

You just can’t go home…

 

Standing at the mountain's edge
You somehow feel removed
After putting it all on the line
You've got everything to prove
You know there’s a lesson here
When the clouds have gone
And the fear disappears
But it’s easier said than done
When the battle's not yet won

 

When the lightening strikes you
The flame burns inside you
You can't turn back now
Leave the ashes in the dust
Keep on going where you must

Cause you can't go home
No you can't go home

You can't go home

You just can’t go home…

 

When the lightening strikes you
The truth burns inside you
You can't look back now
Leave the ashes in the dust
Keep on going where you must

Cause you can't go home
No you can't go home

You can't go home

You just can’t go home…

 

When you can't go home
You just can’t go home
