Ilo Ferreira, Home Again lyrics?!?!?

Post by ~Hippolyte~ »

OK, having heard Ilo perfom Home Again with Jimmy a few times and falling deeper in-love with it each time, I had to try the lyrics. I searched and searched but didn't find them online anywhere.

Please feel free to review this lovely song and make your own suggestions. There are a few lines that change from version to version, listen to listen…..and I certainly can't have gotten this right already?!?!?

Maybe Ilo will chime in, give us all the answers!!

HOME AGAIN
wake up darling, it's Sunday morning
lets go out and see the day
there's a mystery floating around
looks like today is gonna be alright

there's a sound coming through the earth
I can't see from where, but it sounds so good
and it fills me, like a big balloon
and all I can say, this is all about you

Let a song, gave me to you (like this song, gave me to you??)
make it yours and remember me
we gonna shine some like a meteor shower
up in the sky so bright, so right....it's ok

You gave me light, when I was blind
you bring me peace into my heart
you drove me back to my BELIEFS
and today, I'm home again

There must be a kind of light
lighting down on you from so far
and where ever you go it will follow you
still my darling you were made to shine

let a song, gave me to you
make it yours and remember me
we gonna shine some like a meteor shower
up in the sky so bright, so right...it's ok

You gave me light, when I was blind
you bring me peace into my heart
you drove me back to my BELIEFS
and today, I'm home again

let a song, gave me to you
make it yours and remember me
we gonna shine some like a meteor shower
up in the sky so bright, so right...it's ok

You gave me light, when I was blind
you bring me peace into my heart
you drove me back to my BELIEFS
and today, I'm home again

oh my darling, I'm home again
oh my darling, I'm home again
oh my darling, I'm home again
oh my darling, I'm home again

home again
home again
home again

Good luck. I'm still trying to figure out the lyrics he sang to Volcano in Cincy. [smilie=huh-ani.gif]
Now I know this Joe down in Mexico.
He went there to work on his tan.
For years he's been plugged into blenders and songs.
They call him the Twelve Volt Man

I sort of think it is
You drove me back to my beliefs--it definitely seems to be a two syllable word.

Yup, I have it from his CD and beliefs is what I hear.

Ooops, I lied. Guess it isn't on the CD, I must have it from one of the shows. But I still hear beliefs. :wink: :lol:

Thanks Michael - I really like this song too and I also looked for the lyrics tonight - couldn't find them....guess I was looking too far away.

Couldn't find them anywhere either....till I searched on BN.
Next time "I won't look any further than my own backyard" :D

Thanks, Michael!

Oh, yes, very good job, Michael!

In one chorus, it sounded like:
"you drove me back to my beliefs"???? Then again it does sound like place and that makes sense...

What a great UPBEAT song!
