Hmmm 
Hmmm 
Hmmm 
Hmmm 

Light years to be found, 
Gaze out of my window 
Want to feel 
What it is like to belong 
Lead us right 
Through the night 
Help us find a place 
To call home 

We are rolling home, 
We're rolling home 
No more hearts to break, 
No more to roam 
There's no one waiting, 
There's no one to say goodbye 
So guided by a wanderin' star, 
We're rolling home 

There's a silver line 
Over the horizon 
And it fades the dreams 
We've lost long time ago 
You are near, 
There's no fear 
Lost but not alone, 
Going home 

We are rolling home, 
We're rolling home 
No more hearts to break, 
No more to roam 
There's no one waiting, 
There's no one to say goodbye 
(Say goodbye) 
So guided by a wanderin' star, 
We're rolling home
