Down to Earth Lyrics by Billy Eckstine

The Prime of My Life

1965

[Verse 1]
Down to earth once again
And I've been away too long
I got lost but then (Lost but then) I came home again (Home again)
Where I belong

[Verse 2]
Down to earth just in time
To the love I failed to see
I gave up a dream (Up a dream) for a change of scene (Change of scene)
Now I'm back where I should be

[Chorus]
Down to earth, down to earth (Down to earth)
All that I lost, I found
What's it worth, this bitter earth? (Bitter earth)
Without your love around

[Verse 3]
Welcome home little fool
And it's been a long, hard crime
From a world unreal (World unreal) to the things I feel (Things I feel)
Well, love was waiting all the time

[Chorus]
Down to earth
(Down to earth)
