I always intended to return The time had to be right for this visit I wasn't ready Neither was Brachen At last, at last The old lady pays a visit Let's stop and think Just how many lifetimes is it? Oh well, who cares Let's welcome an old acquaintance Who's home at long, long last The furs, the gowns! The handful of rings she's worn here Can you believe that creature was really born here? It well may be she'll answer the prayers we've offered She's home to stay Or just to play Well, anyway, she's home at long, long last
