Lyrics

When I look for direction you're always there
My number one critic and fan;
When I'm failing and lost; don't know where to turn
When life re-directs from my plan...

'cos we all come back to the place that we know
And we all come back and stand
Just to hear your words come tumbling out,
And it's then we understand...

When I lose my identity and don't know,
The person that I have become
When decisions are made on the toss of coins,
And the consequences seem ignored

'cos we all come back to the place that we know
And we all come back and stand
Just to hear your words come tumbling out,
And it's then we understand...

And as life moves so quickly, it's hard to keep up,
With the changes that come on demand.
So I call on my judgement, as best I can
Hoping luck will hold my hand...

'cos we all come back to the place that we know
And we all come back and stand
Just to hear your words come tumbling out,
And it's then we understand...

INSTRUMENTAL

'cos we all come back to the place that we know
And we all come back and stand
Just to hear your words come tumbling out,
And it's then we understand...

'cos we all come back to the place that we know
And we all come back and stand
Just to hear your words come tumbling out,
And it's then we understand...

When I look for direction,
I'll always,
Come home...
