I'm Coming Home

I got a ticket for a plane

All the way from the USA

Packed my memories, left the weather behind

The Captain on the speaker phone

Is the sound that I love most

Who'd have known an Aussie voice could make me cry

I'm coming home to the gumtrees and lamb roast on a Sunday

Sitting 'round the kitchen table, in the town where I grew up

When I fly over the harbour my heart beats a little faster

Soon I'll get to hug my Mother, tell the world, tell the world

I'm coming home

I had the time of my life

I saw it all with my own eyes

I reached the highs, but I couldn't reach for you

So I buckle up, the blinds are down

Two years have gone, I'm homeward bound

Can't wait to run into your arms, it's overdue

I'm coming home to the gumtrees and lamb roast on a Sunday

Sitting 'round the kitchen table, in the town where I grew up

When I fly over the harbour my heart beats a little faster

Soon I'll get to hug my Father, tell the world, tell the world

I'm coming home

I'm coming home to the gumtrees and a land that's in my bloodstream

From the river to the sea, it's where I long to be

When I fly over the harbour my heart beats a little faster

Soon I'll get to hug my Mother, tell the world, tell the world

I'm coming home

I'm coming home

I'm coming home

I'm coming home

I'm coming home

I'm coming home
