Wide awake like the ghost of the past Why do the best of dreams never last? Counting sheep but there is never rest Longing for something you never had As the sky turns to gray The leaves start to fall Life can be so unfair But I know I can't change yesterday Tomorrow I'll be going home Going home Going home They say everything works for the best Every season is only a test To find a needle in the haystack Love in the pursuit of happiness As the sky turns to gray The leaves start to fall Life can be so unfair But I know I can't change yesterday Tomorrow I'll be going home Going home Ooh Don't you worry now, we'll be alright Ooh Life is what we make of the hard times As the sky turns to gray The leaves start to fall Life can be so unfair But I know I can't change yesterday Tomorrow I'll be going home Going home Ooh Don't you worry now, we'll be alright Ooh Life is what we make of the hard times
