Well the place where I come from, it seems light years from here
But the sun though wouldn't know, it never shines there
& just like any other small town, it's always full of small talk
So rumors grow to tumors before they've learn't to walk

But all the while I'm gone, I'm gonna hum this home song

Well the place where I belong
Leave's an afterglow so strong it's moving through me now,
Although I've moved away
I guess I'm just a little homesick, I am from time to time
I don't think about it often, I don't like to waste my time

But all the while I'm gone, I'm gonna hum this home song
