A Place to Come Back To Lyrics

2017 West End
The Wind in the Willows the Musical - A Place to Come Back To Lyrics

MOLE:
It's not much to speak of
My humble abode
Compared to the splendours
Of life on the road

I love the adventures
I love the outdoors
Still it's nice to return to
A place that's just yours

A place to come back to
All journeys must end
My chair by the fireside
A faithful old friend

And too many trinkets
Just gathering dust
A life time of keep-sakes
So keep them I must

The pictures and portraits
That hand on each wall
Are long lost relations
I don't quite recall

Their unspoken welcome
Greets me at the door
So warm and inviting
Worth coming home for

A place to comeback to
Where comfort abounds
With homely aromas
Familiar sounds

A creak on the staircase
The door jammed with sticks
A crack in the window
That one day I'll fix

The books on the bookshelf
I've no time to read
The things that I care for
But don't really need

It may look untidy
Well that is just fine
Who cares if it's messy?
The mess is still mine

A journey is splendid
There's so much to learn
But once it has ended
You'll know you'll return

And all will seem rosy
As you find a path
To somewhere that's cosy
You're place by the hearth

A place to come back to
The calling is strong
My instinct assures me
It's where I belong

Wherever I travel
Wherever I roam
There's one place I yearn for
The place I call home

A place to come back to
The place I call . . . Home
