Looking back, you gave me everything...everything my heart longed for,
Looking back, you gave me wealth and love...love so great I needed nothing more,
So I thought that I could make it on my own, but I'm out here, and I'm all alone.

Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place that I once new,
Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place I once knew.

Looking back, what a fool I've been: I was living only selfishly,
Looking back, how I lived a lie, denying what had meant so much to me,
Couldn't see that your arms were open wide...well, I guess my pride had left me blind.

Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place that I once new,
Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place.

You must've cried when I went my own way, but you've been waiting, patiently waiting,
Right there waiting when I come back home to stay.

Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place that I once new,
Lead me back, lead me back,
Lead me back to a place I once knew, oh.

Looking back, my lies can't hide my heart,
All I really want is to come home.
