Marc Cohn - Already Home Lyrics

Sometimes you've got to go back
Sometimes you don't know why
Sometimes you've got to go back
Sometimes you don't know why

I can see the sunshine coming through my room
Breaking down the winter of my discontent
Looking out my window at the people passing by
I keep wondering where my old companion went

On the steps of the museum
I wrote a line or two
But it took a while to find my way back
To something true like

This is where I lay my hat
This is where they know my name
This is where they show me that
A man's not so alone, no

Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you've got to go back)
Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you don't know why)

Rolling down the window burning up the daze
Cutting through the veil that keeps on blinding me
I was only sleeping waiting here for you
Waiting for your touch that keeps reminding me

Well I've seen the world of wonders
Been underneath it too
But it took a while just to find my way back
To something true like, like

This is where I lay my hat
This is where they know my name
This is where they show me that
A man's not so alone, no

Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you've got to go back)
Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you don't know why)

Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you've got to go back)
Maybe I'm already home
(Sometimes you don't know why)
Maybe I'm already home

Why it had to take me so long
Just to find a place that really feels
This must be where I belong
Thinking about it all I had to do was click my heels

This is where I lay my hat
This is where they know my name
This is where they show me that
A man's not so alone, no
Maybe I'm

This is where I lay my hat
This is where they know my name
This is where they show me that
A man's not so alone, no
Maybe I'm already home
