Way Back Home

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I was just a little boy without careI remember looking up and seeing you thereI never wandered too far from your sightCause all the love I needed was there in your eyesWe grew up in a war zone city with a cast iron windBroken lives, darken streets, and twisted steelBut around our house the sky seems so blueAnd on a wing and prayer we just muddled throughAnd we always kept the laughterAnd the smile upon our faceIn that good-old-fashion british wayWith pride and faultless graceI shall never forget those childhood daysFor as long as I shall liveAnd I'll always find my way backAlways find my way back homeTell me why in wars that made our family strongAs our defiant little island wheathered the stormThere's never seemed enough on my plateYou said: "... be grateful, say grace, don't complain... "How can I ever thank yu for the lessons that I've learntAnd the precious warmth and comfortThat I've felt at every turnAnd the roses sacrifice their livesFor freedom and for peaceI will always find my way backAlways find my way back homeI'll give you stories, operation burning skiesAnd our nation with its back against the wallLike a wide-eyed school boy I hang on with the record (?)Stories I was knee-high to recallAnd we always kept the laughterAnd the smile upon our faceIn that good-old-fashion british wayWith pride and faultless graceI shall never forget those childhood daysFor as long as I should liveAnd I'll always find my way back, always find my wayAnd we always kept the laughterAnd the smile upon our face3In that good-old-fashion british wayWith pride and faultless graceI shall never forget those childhood daysFor as long as I should liveAnd I'll always find my way backAlways find my way back homeChurchill's speech: "Churchill's backgound-ending speech"we shall fight on the beachesWe shall fight on the landing groundsWe shall fight in the fields, and in the streetsWe shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender...
