[Verse 1: Van Morrison]
Oh won't you stay?
Stay awhile with your own ones
Don't ever stray
Stray so far from your own ones
'Cause the world is so cold
Don't care nothing for your soul
You share with your own ones

[Verse 2: Mark Knopfler, Van Morrison & Mark Knopfler]
Don't rush away
Rush away from your own ones
One more day
One more day with your own ones
As the world is so cold
Don't care nothing for your soul
You share with your own ones

[Bridge: Van Morrison]
There's a stranger and he's standing by your door
Might be your best friend, might be your brother
You may never know

[Verse 3: Van Morrison, Van Morrison & Mark Knopfler]
I'm going back
Going back to my own ones
Back to talk
Talk awhile with my own ones
'Cause the world is so cold
Don't care nothing for your soul
You share with your own ones
[Bridge: Van Morrison, Van Morrison & Mark Knopfler]
There's a stranger, [?] stand thеre, standing by your door
Might be your best friеnd, might be your brother
You may never know

[Verse 4: Van Morrison, Van Morrison & Mark Knopfler]
I'm going back
Going back to my own ones
Back to talk
Talk awhile with my own ones
Oh the world is so cold
Don't care nothing for your soul
You share with your own ones
