In January 2002, Marsh left Hear'Say due to conflicts with Klass and Sullivan. She was replaced by Johnny Shentall a month later. During a summer promotional tour, Hear'Say were constantly harassed by members of the public. Lovin' Is Easy, the group's only single to be released with Shentall, failed to make a commercial impact. Hear'Say announced their split in October 2002, eighteen months after their formation, citing "abuse from the public" as the main reason for their demise. Since the dissolution of the band, the members have had individual success in acting, presenting, and singing.
Home Again
Hear'Say Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Free and easy
You say follow your dream, wherever it goes
Wherever it leads me
Met a lot of friends, along the way, in my life
But you know it just won't be the same
Baby till I'm home again
That's where my heart is
Baby till I'm home again, though we're apart
I know that, someday my dreams
Will carry me back to you
You say remember the past, but keep moving on
But these days I'm not sure where I'm going
Now that you're gone
All the big emotions pass me by, here and now
And I won't pretend and I won't lie
Baby till I'm home again
That's where my heart is
Where every road leads me to
Baby till I'm home again, though we're apart
I know that, someday my dreams
Will carry me back to you
Home, when my !ove is waiting
Home, when the dawn is breaking
Home, well take me where I want to be
Back in your arms I need you closer to me
Baby take me home again, home
That's where my heart is
Where every road leads me to
Baby take me home again
Though we're apart I know that someday
My dreams will carry me back
Will carry me home to you
Someday I know we'll be together again
Will carry me home to you
The song "Home Again" by Hear'Say is a powerful and emotional ballad about longing for the place where the heart truly belongs. The lyrics express a desire to follow one's dreams, but also a simultaneous yearning to return to the place that is truly home. The song opens with the advice to follow one's heart and go where the water flows, suggesting freedom and ease in following one's dreams.
The song then reflects on the friends met along the way in life, but notes that none of them can compare to the place where the heart is at home. The lyrics are poignant and powerful, expressing a deep sense of loss and yearning that is repeated throughout the song. The chorus is particularly spine-tingling, with the repetition of the phrase "Baby till I'm home again" underlining the idea that nothing feels complete or right until the person is back in the place they truly belong.
The pre-chorus talks about the confusion and uncertainty that can come with following one's dreams, especially when someone important is no longer present. This sense of uncertainty is resolved and clarified in the chorus, where the lyrics express a firm belief that even though separation is painful, someday the two will be reunited once again. This song is a touching tribute to the idea of "home" and the deep sense of longing that it can inspire.
