Couplet 1

In the beginning
God said let there be
He breathed His life into everything
The garden air
Was pure and sweet
And the birds sang welcome home

Couplet 2

We all know
Where it goes from there
The lie the bite the fall
And nothing but shame to wear
Packing their bags
Headed God knows where
Into a strange new place called alone

Pré refrain

Well that was then
But that was now
And that was them
But that was all of us
Somehow

Refrain 1

Now we’re all trying
To get back home
Back to the place
Where the heart knows it belongs

Refrain 2

So be kind to yourself
And to everyone else
On this long
And winding road

Tag

Cause we’re all just trying
Trying to get back home

Couplet 3

And in the beginning
We were wild and free
Nothing to hide
And nothing we had to be
Not afraid to dance
And not ashamed to sing
Cause we knew we couldn’t do it wrong

Refrain 1

Now we’re all trying
To get back home
Back to the place
Where the heart knows it belongs

Refrain 2

So be kind to yourself
And to everyone else
On this long and winding road

Post-Refrain

And don’t believe it
If you start feelin’ alone
Cause we’re all just
Trying to get back home

Refrain modifié

We’re all trying
To get back home

Pont

We’re all trying
Trying to get back home

Refrain modifié

We’re all trying
To get back home

Refrain 2

So be kind to yourself
And to everyone else
On this long and winding road

Post-Refrain

And don’t believe it
If you start feelin’ alone
Cause we’re all just
Trying to get back home
