Homeland Lyrics by Coope, Boyes and Simpson

What We Sing Is What We Are

0

[Verse]
Oh the glad lives, sometimes sad lives
North east the clouds are streaming
Over joy and over heartache
To a place that glads the heart
Oh the working day’s an idol
To the land that gives you meaning
Back to the friends and family
That were never meant to part
[Chorus]
All the way
Spinning back where touchstone houses drive your fears away
All the way
Though circumstance and fortune make you roam
All the way
Where familiar sights and smells will dry your tears away
Oh, the sky goes all the way home
[Verse]
So you worked to build a life
As you watch your children growing
Each new generation
Just trying to prove its worth
And where your parents toiled
The river ever flowing
Pass the fallen factory
Through the land that gave you birth
[Chorus]
All the way
Spinning back where touchstone houses drive your fears away
All the way
Though circumstance and fortune make you roam
All the way
Where familiar sights and smells will dry your tears away
Oh, the sky goes all the way home
[Verse]
The rain that shapes the gritstone
Runs down to the river
Wheels turn in dark water
As it rolls down to the foam
And the pausing man looks seaward
Where the elemental giver
Burns the waters up to heaven
And the clouds are riding home
[Chorus]
All the way
Spinning back where touchstone houses drive your fears away
All the way
Though circumstance and fortune make you roam
All the way
Where familiar sights and smells will dry your tears away
Oh, the sky goes all the way home
[Outro]
All the way
Spinning back where touchstone houses drive your fears away
All the way
Though circumstance and fortune make you roam
All the way
Where familiar sights and smells will dry your tears away
All the rich and all the poor
All the harmony and war
Oh, the sky goes all the way home
