I lay down my burden
Let go of my pain
With a sigh of relief
Back from where I came
My eyes shall see clearly
My limbs shall be strong
And for those I hold dearly
I leave you this song
Chorus
I’m going home, I’m going home,
I’m going home, I’m going home.
I shall not feel sorrow
Or hardship or strife
Or yearn for tomorrow
Or hang on to life.
For I shall fly freely
To where I am from
To a place so familiar
I’m going home
