Barry Manilow - Welcome Home lyrics

In my life

I have seen

far away places

wild and serene

But nothing I saw

prepared me for

the mat on the floor

saying "welcome home"

Time flies

see the moon rise

as I'm makin' my way

through another long day

But I'll go

to a place I know

In my heart I know

there's just no place

like home

Welcome home

Welcome home

to that place

that's safe and warm

always a shelter

from the storm

I'm going home

Welcome home

roll out the welcome mat

for me

I'm goin' home

Sometimes

I remember

all the days I never knew

If I would ever make it through

but just when

I'd give up again

I'd remember when the days

were stormy

Home was always

waitin' for me

sayin'

Welcome home

Welcome home

where there will always be

a welcoming light on

just for me

when I go home

Welcome home

no place

that I would rather be

than goin' home

In my heart I know

that someday when my time

is drawing near

I'm gonna hear

Welcome home

Welcome home

where there will always be

somebody waiting

there for me

when I go home

home sweet home

everyone's smilin' just for me

when I go home

In my heart I see

Somebody waiting

there for me

Welcome home

Welcome home

it looks like a

starlight symphony

I'm goin' home
