Barbra Streisand - Home From 'the Wiz' Lyrics

Barbra Streisand
Miscellaneous
Home From "the Wiz"
When i think of home, i think of a place
Where there's love overflowing
I wish i were home, i wish i was back there
With the things i've been knowin'
Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the snowflakes that fall have a meaning
Sprinkling the sea
Makes it all clean

Maybe there's a way for me to go back
Now that i have some direction
It would sure be nice to back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe i can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend
Let me start again

Suddenly my world's gone and changed its face
But i still know where i'm goin'
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet i've watched it growin'
If you're listening god, please don't make it hard to go
If we should believe the things that we see
Tell us should we run away, should we try and stay?
Or is better just to let things be?

Living here in this brand new world might be a fantasy
But it's taught me to love so it's real to me
And i've learned that we must look inside our hearts to find
A world full of love like yours and mine
Like home
