Homecoming

I'm a stranger in a strange place Puddles of water and mud reflects my face Trying to keep pace with my tranquil trace Puddles of fire and water splash upon my face Far away, I roam Soon enough, I'll be home Home sweet home Far away, I seek refuge Soon enough, my bravery will be huge Far away...I roam home... I roam home...I'm your garden gnome I'm your stranger, roaming in a strange place I'm a stranger, left with barely a trace of grace I heard it through the grape vine I wish you'd truly be mine This homecoming This homecoming I'm a stranger in a strange place I'm reaching out for vast grace I'm a stranger in a strange place Mirror, mirror reflects my saddened face I'm a stranger in a strange place Puddles of water and mud splattered on my grimy face Trying to run this race, trying to keep pace Puddles of ice and water pour upon my saturated face Far away...I roam home... I roam home...I'm your garden gnome I'm your stranger, roaming in a strange place I'm a stranger, left with barely a trace of grace I heard it through the grape vine I wish you'd truly be mine This homecoming This homecoming I'm a stranger in a strange location I'm a pilgrim, taking a nice vacation Trying to regain my strength and happiness Puddles of raindrops reign upon my distress I'm a stranger Not seeking danger... I'm a stranger Living in a mist of blur~ A blur that is so unreal and very impure...extremely hard to endure!! Far away...I roam home... I roam home...I'm your garden gnome I'm your stranger, roaming in a strange place I'm a stranger, left with barely a trace of grace I heard it through the grape vine I wish you'd truly be mine This homecoming This homecoming Feeling oh so unsure Dealing with my insecurities Trying to find a simple cure Before I relive my horrifying fantasies and tragedies - an aftermath I don't want to count on, so I can live life at blissful ease... I wish time would pass me by Sometimes, I have this feeling I wanna cry I'm a stranger in a strange place I'm feeling insecure and lonesome...sorta out of place, but this homecoming, I will prove that I will win this race!
