Home, home where I wanted to go You are, you are, you are And nothing else compares The lights go out and I can't be saved Tides that I tried to swim against Have brought me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead, singing Come out of things unsaid

Where the dreamy Volga flows There's a lonely Russian rose Gazing tenderly Down upon her knee Where a baby's brown eyes glisten Every night you'll hear her croon A Russian lullaby Just a little plaintive tune

I feel there's no place left to hide Drowning in slow motion From myself, I am left behind Is this fate imagined? Blackened horizon Light has withdrawn All behold the bloodshed Down upon your knees All extol the godsend

You are, you are And nothing else compares Home, home, where I wanted to go Home, home, where I wanted to go (You are) The lights go out and I can't be saved Tides that I tried to swim against Have brought me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead,
