inspired by being away from home and being immersed in the music for so long that being back with your loved ones becomes more of a holiday than travelling the world
lyrics
I love the music and I love the fans
but the thought of 3000 miles makes my head spin
I love the music and I love the scene
20 years of memories invading my dreams
borders roll past as days turn to weeks
but being this far from home gives me the creeps
I close my eyes and see the faces
of everyone I left behind
i'll be with the ones I love
i'm on the train and i'm going home
what use is a merry christmas
if you have to spend it alone
on the bus, days feel like moments
on the train the clock ticks backwards and hurts
my heart builds pace
as the tracks take me back to the place that I call home
I can almost taste it now
and my soul breathes
i'm coming home
i'll be with the ones I love
i'm on the train and i'm going home
what use is a merry christmas
if you have to spend it alone
I can almost taste it now
and my soul breathes
i'm coming home
i'll be with the ones I love
i'm on the train and i'm going home
what use is a merry christmas
if you have to spend it alone
i'll be with the ones I love
i'm on the train and i'm going home
what use is a merry christmas
if you have to spend it alone
