The burning, the bleeding
The lost cause man retreating
The black eyes, the white lies
The love that will not die
Now the dreams bring troubled sleep
So keep them away
Stretched along the road too thin
By too many days
Take me home
Southland's callin' my name
Neither love, nor men, nor law
Can keep me away
He won't give, he must live
He cannot give in to this
His blood cold, he craves home
The weary soldier groans
Now the dreams bring troubled sleep
So keep them away
Stretched along the road too thin
By too many days
Take me home
Southland's callin' my name
Neither love, nor men, nor law
Can keep me away
