Closer to Home

Travelling home is the best way to learn,
Roads pull us on, but we always return.
Seems like the distance just helps us to see,
Roots pull us back to where we're meant to be.

Chorus:
Each mile we go takes us further away,
And yet we learn by the end of the day.
It's all a circle no matter where we roam.
Each mile we go takes us closer to home.

Travelling home, somewhere we've never been,
Still the same play, just a change of the scene
Walking away from what seemed like our home,
So we can build a true home of our own.

Repeat chorus

Travelling home, sometimes life seems that way,
Thinking we're lost just as we find our way.
Our journey started the day we were born,
And when our time comes, one day we'll return.

Repeat chorus

Repeat chorus

Travelling home always helps us to see,
Where we came from and where we want to be.
What we all learn at the end of the day,
We're always home once we find our own way.

Repeat chorus 2x

Coda:
It's all a circle, no matter where we roam,
Each mile we go takes us closer to home.
