Joey Tempest - A Place To Call Home lyrics

Your rating:

I was out the front door, like nothing was lost 
Wanted my freedom, no matter what the cost 
It made no difference, what anyone said 
I didn't follow my heart, I followed my head 

Well, a man is an island, but the water is deep 
And the shore on the other side is ragged and steep 
Well, I built my castle for just one man 
Without the love of a woman, it's made out of sand 

A tower of strength, with no one around 
To pick me up, when it all came down 
Well, I should have known: 
We all need a place to call home 
Oh yeah, uh huh 

Well, you travel the highways and you travel the world 
When there ain't much left you haven't seen or heard 
To look for perfection is a lonely old ride 
It takes a whole lot of courage and a whole lot of pride 

And then one day when you really care 
She touches your soul but you're far too scared 
Well, I should have known: 
We all need a place to call home 
Oh yeah, uh huh, oh yeah 

I'm trying everyday ,
To find out more about myself 
earning how to love 
now I need it from somebody else 
Yeah, yeah 
Oh oh oh oh 
Oooooooh 
Yeah, yeah

Come poets and writers, 
Come spare me some time 
Come tell me the reason 
Come tell me the rhyme 
When you look for independence 
And you get what you want 
How come you look back 
Thinking "what have I done?" 

But time and again, it dawns on me 
It's the price we pay for liberty 
Well, I should have known 
We all need a place to call home 
Oh yeah, home 
God, I miss you tonight 
We all need a place to call home 
Oh yeah
Uh huh
Oh yeah
