[Intro]

I think, um, I don't know, I just

This yearning I'm feeling

I just want it to be an asset

I don't know, just

Bring some healing to someone

Someone out there who just

Who just feels like going home

(There is no place like home)

[Chorus]

Vancity, the city of rain

Vancity, wash the dust away

[Refrain]

Soak these dusty bones with water from your own

Clouds above the city sky

Towering trees like umbrellas

For the moustached fellas and the ladies passin' by

Vancity, the city of rain

I miss my strolls down Robson street

I'll walk, don't need no keys hear the nine o'clock gun

Main Street, Waterfront, Burrard

I've wandered out too far now I wanna be where you are

[Chorus]

Vancity, my city of rain

Vancity, wash the dust away

(There is no place like home)

[Post-Chorus]

Da-da-da-da-da

[Verse]

We spinnin' in the same orbit

But watchin' a different sunset (There is no place like home)

Things just aren't the same

Walking a path of fame

(There is no place like home, there is no place like home)

The things that I miss

Lips I used to kiss so far away

Tomorrow's today (There is no place like home)

Lord, take me home

Da-da-da-da-da

[Pre-Chorus]

They say that home is where the heart is

But my childish heart was left in

(There is no place like home)

[Chorus]

Vancity, my city of rain

Vancity, wash the dust away

[Refrain]

(Take me home)

Come on and soak these dusty bones with water from your own

Clouds above the city sky

(Take me home)

Towering trees like umbrellas

For the mustached fellas and the ladies passin' by

Vancity, my heart don't know where to stay

I miss my strolls down Robson street

I'll walk, don't need no keys hear the nine o'clock gun

Main Street, Waterfront, Burrard

I've wandered out too far now I wanna be where you are

[Chorus]

Vancity, my city of rain

Vancity, wash the dust away

[Outro]

(There is no place like home)
