It will be whatever it is you're looking for
It will be whatever it is you need
It will be better even though I know you're not sure
Remember the rain even comes down in Shangri-La
Look up as it soaks into your skin and remember who you are and

Come on home when the road you've been walking gets too long
Don't be scared in case the grass you thought was greener isn't there
You can come on home

If you find the sun won't shine through every window
If you find a moonlit night still makes you blue
If you find out why you feel the way you do
Glance over your shoulder boy you know I'll be there
I've found in the past you know, sometimes life isn't fair so

Come on home when the road you've been walking gets too long

Don't be scared in case the grass you thought was greener isn't there
You can come on home
When lifes isn't fair don't go there
You can come on home
