"Way Back"

by Joseph McCombs

"Showtime" was the call, and there were
Flowers in my hair, and there were
People on the ground, and there was
Music in the air

          And I felt all right
          Like a bird in flight
          And I did not feel alone
          No more breaking up
          I was waking up
          I was on my way back home

And there was
Beatles in the deck, and there were
Dimples on your face, and I was
Awestruck by the sights, 'cause there were
Flowers everyplace

          And I felt all right
          Like a bird in flight
          And I did not feel alone
          No more breaking up
          I was waking up
          I was on my way back home

Now I am
Chanting like a monk, and I am
Singing like a bird, and I'm not
Hung up on a cloud, and I'm not
Hanging on a word

          'Cause I feel so great
          And I just can't wait
          But I guess you've always known
          That it's oh so true
          I'm in love with you
          And it's good to be back home.
