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
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
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
I don't forget where I'm from
I don't forget where I'm from
That's where I feel good
I'm coming home, coming home
