Lyrics
I want to go home, I want to go home
Expressing a strong desire to return home.
I want to go back to Adelaide
Specifically longing to return to Adelaide, a place of significance.
It' s time for a change, don't want to be late
Feeling the need for a change and emphasizing the urgency.
It's probably night in Adelaide
Noting the time difference and suggesting it's nighttime in Adelaide.
In a day or two, I'll be there asking for you
Planning to reach Adelaide soon and seeking someone's company.
To come back to Adelaide with me
Inviting someone to come along to Adelaide.
The weather there is so good.
Highlighting the appealing weather in Adelaide.
So pass me the phone, I'll go it alone
Taking initiative, expressing independence in the journey.
I'll whistle my way to Adelaide
Whistling and maintaining a positive attitude on the way to Adelaide.
There's no time to cry, I'll be there tonight
Stressing the urgency to arrive without dwelling on emotions.
The trains and the boats and planes are on time.
Highlighting the efficiency of transportation methods.
But before I go, I'm knock-knocking on your front door
Before departure, making a last attempt to connect with someone.
Be sure to say good-bye to your friends
Encouraging farewells and acknowledging the importance of friends.
And to all my friends back home.
Extending goodbyes to friends in the current location.
But before I go, I'm knock-knocking on your front door
Repeating the farewell gesture for emphasis.
Be sure to say good-bye to your friends
Reiterating the importance of saying goodbye to friends.
And to all my friends back home.
Emphasizing farewells to friends from the home location.
Oh, Adelaide, Adelaide, I want you tonight
Expressing a strong desire for someone in Adelaide.
Adelaide, Adelaide, I want you tonight
Repeating the desire for someone in Adelaide, emphasizing the immediacy.
