Last time I came through here The big dance band was mine I sang of things that mattered Revolution, Palestine Afterwards, we walked alone The moon was out, your eyes they shone And I gave you Forget-Me-Nots You whispered, "Take me home" And I said "Home is oh so far away "And anyway, I've got so much to do "‘Fore I can think of heading home" Heading home Last time, when I came through here I just strummed guitar Laid the chords and kept the beat For the big, new singing star Afterward, I scanned the crowd Out by the bus you weren't around And I trashed my Forget-Me-Nots Thought of you, and thought of home But home is oh so far away And anyway, I got so much to do ‘Fore I can think of heading home Heading home Maybe you were out of town Who knows, your job could keep you working nights Maybe it's not just because my star ain't shining quite so bright Maybe next time I come through You'll be waiting when they turn the lights down low And I'll give you Forget-Me-Nots You'll whisper "Take me home" And I'll say "Home is not so far away "And anyway, ain't got much to do "Maybe it's time we're heading home" Heading home
