Evening Falls

When the evening falls and the daylight is fading,
From within me calls - could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray, then it holds me completely.
Close to home - I cannot say.
Close to home feeling so far away.

As I walk the room, there before me a shadow
From another world, where no other can follow
Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over...
Close to home - I cannot say.
Close to home feeling so far away.

Forever searching; never right, I am lost
In oceans of night. Forever
Hoping I can find memories.
Those memories I left behind.

Even though I leave, will I go on believing
That this time is real - am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through, never knowing the reason.
I am home - I know the way.
I am home feeling oh, so far away.
