Gone is the last stain of ink from the sky

Somebody's talkin' and I won't tell you why

So you ask them to stay, when you want them to fly

And you try not to think of tomorrow's goodbye

(Hometime)

(Hometime)

Oh, how I long to see a friend of mine!

Somewhere, he's still waiting

Somewhere, his heart's saying

"She will be coming for me, she'll be coming for me"

(Hometime)

Hometime

(Hometime)

Oh hometime

I'll know his name and he'll remember mine

Let him be just for me

Let him be poetry

Wait for me patiently

Wait for me

Gone is the last stain of ink from the sky

Somebody's talkin' and I won't tell you why

So you ask them to stay, when you want them to fly

And you try not to think of tomorrow's goodbye

(Hometime)

Hometime

(Hometime)

Oh hometime

Oh, how I long to see a friend of mine!

Somewhere, he's still waiting

Watching the door for if she, she'll be calling

It's me

And this morning

It's me
