Lyrics:

Everyone knows that there's no place like home
I'm just seeking refuge in a world full of storms
Washed up on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore

The natives are hostile whatever I say
The thing they fear most is I might want to stay
By their side on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore

I escape my tormentors by crossing the sea
What I cannot escape is the memory
Washed up on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore

Everyone knows that there's no place like home
I'm just seeking refuge in a world full of storms
Washed up on a distant shore
Can't go home anymore...
