I leave when the day breaks
_____
My head, my suitcase full of dreams
_____
That keeps pinching my heart
_____
When the steam train pulls away too fast
_____
A thousand times I had the courage to leave
_____
A thousand and one times the urge to come back
_____
When I'm lost you're my compass
_____
That guides my sorrows and comforts me
_____
Maybe this road is mine
_____
Trips back and forth without end
_____
Yes, it's time I came back
_____
I don't forget where I'm from
_____
And I'm coming home
_____
That's where I feel good
_____
Nobody told me to leave
_____
The last thing I want is to betray
_____
It's true, I don't keep in touch much
_____
But I don't forget those we call the faithful
_____
And I picture what the friends are doing
_____
The talks of those who've never left
_____
And when the storm and the flood hit
_____
You're my crew, my shelter
_____
Maybe this road is mine
_____
Trips back and forth without end
_____
Yes, it's time I came back
_____
And I'm coming home
_____
I don't forget where I'm from
_____
That's where I feel good
_____
One more day when I'm so far away
_____
One more round, one last train I guess
_____
One more day but starting tomorrow
_____
Still I run evening and morning
_____
One more round, it's all a bit pointless
_____
One more day and I'm back
_____
And I'm coming home
_____
I don't forget where I'm from
_____
I'm coming home
_____
I don't forget where I'm from
_____
And I'm coming home
_____
That's where I feel good
_____
I'm coming home
_____
I'm coming home, coming home
