Europe - Homeland
Remember that summer down by the shoreline
I still can hear those old forgotten songs
And we made promises to last forever
I just can’t believe those days are gone
There used to be a place that we could call our own
We used to think tomorrow was a long , long time
But sadness filled my heart
When I knew the moment had come
When I had to leave those days behind
I felt so free where I wanted to be
The days went so fast how I wish they could last
So far from my homeland I’m lost in time
My soul’s still searchin’ for that peace of mind
Those sacred landscapes come miles around
And my heart’s still beatin’ for those country grounds
Remember when our hearts were filled with laughter
It echoes in my trail of fallen tears
But no matter where I am today
Or what the future might bring
I will remember those long gone years
I can’t let go I wanna know
Does it have to end for the best of friends
So far from my homeland I’m lost in time
My soul’s still searchin’ for that peace of mind
Those sacred landscapes come miles around
And my heart’s still beatin’
For those country grounds
Lord I know that those days are gone
Long, long, gone
I felt so free where I wanted to be
The days went so fast how I wish they could last
