Jumbo Lyrics by Curved Air

Second Album

1971

[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I flew home through the night
So I'd be home for the dawn
Down through the clouds, the land beneath
All covered in green
[Chorus]
Fly me on my way home
I've been away for so long
Speed me on my way home
I've missed you for so long
[Verse 2]
Sat back, watching the film
Don't ask me what it was called
For all my thoughts were far away
With people I knew
[Verse 3]
They said things over there
Might be a little bit strange
But all I found, the same but more
With people like me
[Chorus]
Fly me on my way home
I've been away for so long
Speed me on my way home
I've missed you for so long
[Verse 4]
They said I might survive
Whereas others had died
Stay in your room after dark
Don't venture outside
[Verse 5]
I'm glad I'm comin' home
Back to the ways that I know
Even though I'm glad I've seen
I'm comin' home
[Chorus]
Fly me on my way home
I've been away for so long
Speed me on my way home
I've missed you for so long
[Instrumental Outro]
