Why don't we take the wrong way home? No one's calling on the telephone Dream in the head and a lightning stone Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm Wake up again with the sun in your face Day after day it's the same Pack up your bags like you did yesterday Get to the next starting place Put on your makeup and get on the stage Tell a new tale every night Stand still the sets and the scenery change Are we just ghosts in the light of the ghost light? Why don't we take the wrong way home? No one's calling on the telephone Dream in the head and a lightning stone Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm What do we need to keep us going on? Half a deck of cards and a suitcase drum What do we do when we've lost our way? Trail of lucky pennies gonna get us home safe What do we need? What do we do? Why don't we take the wrong way home? No one's calling on the telephone Dream in the head and a lightning stone Nothing gonna touch us in a thunderstorm ♪ Travelers we wander all over the world Tracing a shape we can't see Home's not a place, it is only a word Where we are trying to be Day after day, it is never the same Look at the clouds in the sky Pack up your bags like you did yesterday Wake with the sun in your eyes
