Lay back in the arms of your homeland
Give in to the warmth of your homeland
Lay back in the arms of the land that you love
Lay back in the arms of your homeland
When you feel you're a part of that homeland
Lay back in the arms of the land that you love

Lay back in the arms of your homeland
Give in to the warmth of your homeland
Lay back in the arms of the land that you love
Lay back in the arms of your homeland
When you feel you're a part of that homeland
Lay back in the arms of the land that you love
