Traveled for many years He traveled across the seas Great ships taking him far, far away
Left her, so many times he left her The children waved goodbye Mom always cried right inside She cried (she had pride)
Upon returning home one day Bought a guitar for his son to play Within a year, we strummed and we sang Everyone smiled as the harmonies rang All through the house, all the melodies sang
Years passed, we found a home And at last a house across the lake Swing on a vine in the woods
Ocean, but how we missed the ocean He said, "Pack up, we'll go back to the island, our home." He took us home (He took us home)
Once back home the music had grown Citizens waited in line to be shown The family group was good, all agreed But nobody helped out the man and his dream Everyone laughed at the man and his dream
He walked for miles up and down New York streets Selling the songs on the tape and his sheet Strange looks from record company heads "Later on you'll regret it", he said And later on they remembered, he says
Father, we'd like to thank you Father, and so we thank you Father, we'd like to say we love youTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
