Cooler at the edge
Longing for the green
Cooler back where you come from
And you survive, you survive
But you're not alive
Slower back where you come from

Better off, but lonely
Foreign streets are so straight
And oh to be understood
But go back home, that's what they say, go
Oh but they don't have to know you

It's the pull of the moon, full rising
The power of the tide going out
And it holds you forever
Even if you never go home

Café, laughing strangers
Cooler kind of smile
They've got a different, a different sense of humor
And try as you can, you just can't get inside
And oh that distance you can't hide

It's the pull of the moon, full rising
The power of the tide going out
And it holds you forever
Even if you never go home
(2x)

Even if you never go home...
