Why don’t we take the wrong way home

No one’s calling on the telephone

Dream in the head and a lightning stone

Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm

Wake up again with the sun in your face

Day after day it’s the same

Pack up your bags like you did yesterday

Get to the next starting place

Put on your makeup and get on the stage

Tell a new tale every night

Stand still the sets and the scenery change

Arе we just ghosts in the light of the ghost light

Why don’t wе take the wrong way home

No one’s calling on the telephone

Dream in the head and a lightning stone

Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm

What do we need to keep us going on

Half a deck of cards and suitcase drum

What do we do when we’ve lost our way

Trail of lucky pennies gonna get us home safe

What do we need

What do we do

Why don’t we take the wrong way home

No one’s calling on the telephone

Dream in the head

And a lightning stone

Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm

Travelers we wander all over the world

Tracing a shape we can’t see

Home’s not a place it is only a word:

Where we are trying to be

Day after day it is never the same

Look at the clouds in the sky

Pack up your bags like you did yesterday

Wake with the sun in your eyes
