When I think of home

I think of a resting place

A place where theres peace, quiet, and serenity

And thats where some of my friends have gone

Friends who have traveled with me through my wonderful experience in Oz

A journey Ill never forget



When I think of home, I think of a place

Wheres theres love overflowing

I wish I was home, I wish I was back there

With the things Ive been knowing



Wind that makes the tall grass bend into leaning

Suddenly the raindrops that fall they have a meaning

Sprinklin the scene

Makes it all clean



(When I think of home)

Maybe theres a chance for me to go back

Now that I have some direction

(Maybe theres a chance Ill get home)

It sure would be nice to be back at home

Where theres love and affection



And just maybe I can convince time to slow up

Givin me enough time, ooh, in my life to grow up

Time be my friend

And let me start again



Suddenly my worlds gone and change its fate

And I still know where Im going

I have had my mind spun round in space

And watched it growing



And oh, if youre listening, God, please dont make it hard

To know if we should believe the things that we see

Tell us should we try and stay or should we run away (Should we run away)

Or will it be better just to let things, let them be, oh



Livin here in this brand new world

Might be a fantasy

But its taught me to love, oh, yeah

And its real, its so real, its real to me



And Ive learned that we must look

Inside our hearts to find

A world full of love

Like yours, like mine



Like home

Like, like home

(When I think of home)

My friends smilin down on me

Givin me their energy, oh

(When I think of home)

I think of a peaceful world and joy

All around me, yeah

(When I think of home)

And love that we share can never

Never, ever be taken away from me, yeah, yeah, yeah

(When I think of home)

I just sit down and think

And gets on down in my bone, b
