Lyrics

Back (NYC)

Goin' back home only place to go best place to be

Something was wrong felt a bit lost things that I just couldn't see

Made it back here now I reappear seeing more clear

People of my own don't feel alone only way to be

Where I belong, where I belong, where I belong

Where I belong, where I belong

Had to flee the nest now I can attest that I can be free

Things are always tough wherever you may go you gotta see the road

I have a new life with seasonal skies changing my affinity

Not about your worth not about your gain go get some humility

Back

Where I belong

Back

Where I belong

Glad I read the signs glad I spent the miles on the road to reality

No longer have to lie or try to qualify or have to let go

Finally found my way inviting me to stay in a great place to be

No longer feeling lost no longer pay the cost of never feeling free

Where I belong, where I belong, where I belong

Where I belong, where I belong

Back

Where I belong

Back

Where I belong

Back

Where I belong

Back

Where I belong

I feel it I see it

Where I belong

I feel it I see it

Where I belong

I feel it I see it

Where I belong

I feel it I see it

Where I belong

Goin' back home only place to go best place to be

I have a new life with seasonal skies changing my affinity

Made it back here now I reappear seeing more clear

No longer feeling lost no longer pay the cost of never feeling free

Back

Back

Back

Where I belong
