[Verse]
Climbing up on
Solsbury Hill
I could see th
e city lights
Wind was blowi
ng, time stood
still
Eagle flew out
of the night
He was somethi
ng to observe
Came in close,
I heard a voi
ce
Standing stret
ching every ne
rve
Had to listen
had no choice
I did not bel
ieve the info
rmation
I just had to
trust imagi
nation
My heart go
ing boom boom
boom
"Son," he sa
id
"Grab your thi
ngs,
I've come to t
ake you home
[Instrumental]

To keep in sil
ence I resigne
d
My friends wou
ld think I was
a nut
Turning water
into wine
Open doors wou
ld soon be shu

So I went from
day to day
Tho' my life w
as in a rut
'Til I thought
of what I'd s
ay
Which connecti
on I should cu
t
I was feelin
g part of the
scenery
I walked right
out of the ma
chinery
My heart going
boom boom boo

I've come to t
ake you home

[Verse]
When illusion
spin her net
I'm never wher
e I want to be
And liberty sh
e pirouette
When I think t
hat I am free
watched by emp
ty silhouettes
Who close thei
r eyes
but still can
see
No one taught
them etiquette
I will show an
other me
Today I don't
need a replace
ment
I'll tell them
what the smil
e on my face m
eant
My heart going
boom boom boo
m
"Hey" I sai
d
You can keep m
y things
they’ve come t
o take me home
