Rambling around your city streets
I feel no earth below my feet
And I feel my life is crumbling into the sea
But I can´t swim three thousand miles
So all I have is lonely nights
I´m an Englishman lost in the U.S. of A.
And it´s a long way back home
Such a long way back home
And I´m wondering
Where am I gonna go
Lines dead, operators gone
And now the fear is coming on
And I hear my love wondering where have I gone
So I´m gambling my bucks for pounds
Yeah, but Lady Luck just won´t come around
For an Englishman who is stuck in the U.S. of A.
And it´s a long way back home
Such a long way back home
Oh I´m wondering will I ever get away

[Solo]

So here I am and there are you
Where wishful thoughts don´t serve no use
And all the worrying in the world won´t pull me through
So I think of love that might have been
And an airline ticket that´s like a dream
For an Englishman who is lost in the U.S. of A.
Such a long way from home
Such a long way from home
And I´m wondering, I´m wondering
Will I ever get to
I´m a long way, a long way
A long way back home
I´ve been wondering
Will I ever get to go, yeah

[Solo]

Yeah I´m waiting for you to take me home
C´mon baby
And I´m waiting for you to take me home
Yes I´m waiting for you to take me home
Take me home

[Solo]

Take me home
