Returning Home

I saw the ruins once the smoke cleared 
Once upon returning home 
A touch of sadness but no fear 
Once upon returning home 
I don't know what I cried about but 
Reality removed all doubt 
I felt warm but all alone 
Once upon returning home 
Returning home 
Once this place was paradise 
Green and blue colors of the sea 
It's still alive so it shall return 
Eventually, oh, oh, oh 
The sacred builders, the chosen ones 
Have learned to live and let live 
Once you take what's there to share 
You've got to give, you got to give 
Oh, don't let the changes get you down 
You'll see the this world turned upside down 
If you listen, you'll hear the word 
When it comes around, when it comes around 
Yeah 
I saw the ruins once the smoke cleared 
Once upon returning home 
A touch of sadness but no fear 
Once upon returning home 
Yeah-I don't know what I cried about but 
Reality removed all doubt 
I felt warm but all alone 
Once upon returning home 
Oh- 
Look around, there's work to do 
A new life for the chosen few 
The world sings in the same key, sweet harmony 
Just when you thought you had it made 
With fool's gold the road was paved 
And circles get so big and wide 
You can't see to the other side, other side 
Oh, the long journey wore me down 
To see this world turned upside down 
There'll be some time before things 
-Settle down- 
I saw the ruins once the smoke cleared 
Once upon returning home 
A touch of sadness but no fear 
Once upon returning home 
I don't know what I cried about but 
Reality removed all doubt 
I felt warm but all alone 
Once upon returning home 
Returning home, yeah 
Oh, don't let the changes get you down, no 
You'll see the world turned upside down 
If you listen, you'll hear the word 
When it comes around, when it comes around 
I saw the ruins once the smoke cleared 
Once upon returning home 
A tough of sadness but no fear 
Once upon returning home 
I don't know what I cried about but 
Reality removed all doubt 
I felt warm but all alone 
Once upon returning home 
Returning home, yeah 
Oh, oh yeah 
Coming home 
I saw the ruins 
Coming home 
I saw the smoke clear 
Coming home 
I felt the world turn upside down 
Coming home 
Oh- 
Coming home 
Coming home 
Coming home 
Coming home 
Coming home
