Going Home
Journey of Reflection: Finding Home in Melancholy Tunes
Lyrics
Not very often have we met
Infrequent meetings have occurred
But the music's been too bad
Displeased with the quality of music experienced
Can only sense happiness
Ability to perceive happiness is limited
if the music is sad
Can only feel joy if the music is melancholic
So, I'm going home
Deciding to return home
I must hurry home
Expressing the urgency to go back
Where a life goes on
Life continues in the familiar setting of home
We're too old to make a mess
Belief in being too mature to create chaos
Dreams will keep me young
Hopeful dreams maintain youthful spirit
Old enough to stress
Old enough to experience stress
Only mirrors tell the time
Mirrors as indicators of time passing
So, I'm going home
Reiterating the decision to head home
I must hurry home
Stressing the need to return promptly
So will my life go on
Life will persist in that environment
Yes, I'm going home
Affirming the choice to go back home
Going home alone
Returning home without companionship
And your life goes on
Others' lives continue elsewhere
So, I'm going home
Repeating the decision to leave for home
I must hurry home
Emphasizing the urgency again
So will my life go on
Life will persist in the familiar environment
Yes, I'm going home
Reaffirming the choice to return home
Going home alone
Returning home without companionship
And your life goes on
Others' lives continue elsewhere
