Pasek & Paul
On Your Way Home
[JAMES TROTTER, spoken]
I must keep these very safe. This is no place for the two of you. You can leave anytime you want. I can't leave, because... I have no place to go.
(sung)
Where do you go when you're flying away?
Where do you go when they can't make you stay?
Over the garden and scraping the tops of the trees
On your way home
What is it like looking down on the beach?
Sailing through sky out of everyone's reach
Suddenly free like a leaf playing tag with the breeze
On your way home
On your way home
And when you get there is it perfect?
And when you get there is a family waiting for you?
I close my eyes and see them laughing, telling jokes, playing games
All of it true
How would they feel if your friend James came along, too?
Where do you go when you start to feel sad?
Everyone's gone, no more mum, no more dad
Tucked in the clouds, is there somewhere you won't be alone?
And when you get there, is it perfect?
And when you get there, is there someone waiting for you?
May I hold onto your wings and come, too?
On your way home
