Up and down, I love a merry-go-round
You went your way, I went my way
Said, you'll see me down life's highway
Not black or white
As crystal clear as a cloudy night
Traveling in the name of lonely
I was only home when you held me

Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To emerge from the shadows
Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To come knocking at my door

And it's here
Where I've come home to
Right here
Everything I hold on to is here
All the things I keep so dear

Flying home tonight
As far away as a satellite
Keeping your heart in my pocket
Hope to God that I don't drop it

Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To emerge from the shadows
Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To come bursting through my door

And it's here
Where I've come home to
Right here
Everything I hold on to is here
All the things I keep so dear are here

Oh, what a time to come back
Oh, what a time to come home
Oh, what a time to come back
Oh, what a time

Up and down, I love a merry-go-round
You went your way, I went my way
Said, you'll see me down life's highway

Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To emerge from the shadows
Yeah, it's a hell, a hell of a time
To come knocking at my door

And it's here
Where I've come home to
Right here
Everything I hold on to is here
All the things I keep so dear are here

Everybody's talking now
Everybody's walking 'round
Everybody's dreaming 'bout

Everybody's talking now
Everybody's walking 'round
Everybody's dreaming 'bout

Everybody's talking now
Everybody's walking 'round
Everybody's dreaming 'bout
