Tumbling curls of green
By stain-glass streaming light
And a yellow coloured lamp-shade
Used to keep us up all night
And the smile upon your face
The tears upon your cheek
The night sky on the window
Your heart calling out to me

Chorus:
Come running home again
Katie
Come running home again
Cross my heart and hope to die
May I ever cause a tear from your eye
Katie

And the mirror that won't work
And your nightgown on the door
And the old peddle singer
Just don't sing no more
You can roll the reals for hours
Of the movie of this book
It's a question-mark on this heart of mine
Sends an elder back to look

Chorus

Now I'm looking through the tunnel
And I'm back into the room
With the genius of a druid
When the sunlight floods the tomb
And I'm never going back there
I couldn't anyway
'Cause though I made the great escape
I never got away

Chorus X2
