back home - bert jansch lyrics

Loading...

i got a wish, i got a yearning to be home
i got a longing to be walking down the street
to see the chimney tops smoking on the skyline
feel the cobble stones hard beneath my feet

if you could see the town where i was born
stand on the high street, you can look out to the sea
or take a drink from a friendly corner ale*house
a more pleasant place you could never wish to be

oh, to hear the women sweetly talking
ah, sweet music singing gently in your ear
ah, to be back home

when you see the rolling hills ‘cross the border
and the heather smells so sweetly in the air
you know that you can’t be, just can’t be anywhere
and you feel that magic shiver in your bones
you know you’re home

when you see the rolling hills ‘cross the border
and the heather smells so sweetly in the air
you know that you can’t be, just can’t be anywhere
and you feel that magic shiver in your bones
you know you’re home

i hope and pray, nothing’s changed since i was there
fond memories still linger in my mind
i know that town like a preacher knows his bible
and i got to thinking, i’m gonna leave this road behind

oh, to hear the women sweetly talking
ah, sweet music singing gently in my ear
ah, to be back home

yeah, when you see the rolling hills ‘cross the border
and the heather smells so sweetly in the air
you know that you can’t be, just can’t be anywhere
and you feel that magic shiver in your bones
you know you’re home
yeah, you know you’re home
yeah, you know you’re home
