Intro

Verse 1

 They say that heaven's pretty, and livin' here is too

 But if they said that I would have to choose between the two

 I'd go home, going home where I belong

Verse 2

Sometimes when I'm dreaming, it comes as no surprise

 That if you'll look you'll see the homesick feeling in my eyes

 I'm going home, I'm going home where I belong

Chorus

While I'm here I'll serve him gladly, sing him all these songs

 I'm here, but not for long

Verse 3

When I'm feeling lonely, and when I'm feeling blue

 It's such a joy to know that I am only passing through

 I'm headed home, I'm going home where I belong

Chorus

While I'm here I'll serve him gladly, sing him all these songs

 I'm here, but not for long

OUTTRO

One day I'll be sleeping when Death knocks on my door

 And I'll awake to find that I'm not homesick any more

 'Cause I'll be home, I'll be home where I belong
