A Sort Of Homecoming
 
  And you know it's time to go
through the sleet and driving snow
across the fields of mourning to a
light that's in the distance

And you hunger for the time
time to heal
'desire'
time
and your earth moves beneath
your own dream landscape

Oh oh on borderland we run
and still we run
we run and don't look back
I'll be there
I'll be there
tonight
a highroad out of here

the city walls are all come down
the dust a smokescreen all around see
faces ploughed like fields that once
gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road
on the side of a hill as the valleys explode
dislocated suffocated
the land grows weary of its own

(O coma way o coma wa o coma o coma way say I)

oh oh on borderland we run
and still we run
we run and don't look back
tonight
tonight

(O coma way o coma wa o coma o coma way say I)

The wind will crack in wintertime
a bomb-blast lightning waltz
no spoken words
just a scream...

tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
see the sky the burning rain
she will die and live again
tonight

And your heart beats so slow
through the rain and fallen snow
across the fields of mourning
to a light that's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow
no don't weep
for tonight
at last
I am coming home
I am coming home
