I wanna go home
Michael Bublé Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another aeroplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
'Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home
Let me go home
It will all be all right




I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home

Overall Meaning

The song "I Wanna Go Home" by Michael Bublé is a heartfelt ballad that captures feelings of loss, nostalgia, and longing for home. The lyrics express the singer's desire to return home after being away and feeling out of place in other locations, such as Paris and Rome. The first verse sets the scene, as the singer laments the passing of another summer day in these far-off locations. He speaks of feeling alone and disconnected, despite being surrounded by people, and his desire to return to a place where he feels grounded and connected to the people he loves.


The second verse deepens this sense of dislocation, as the singer speaks of keeping letters to his loved one, but feeling that his words were inadequate to express the depth of his feelings. He expresses his gratitude at being able to travel to sunny places, but acknowledges that this comes at a cost, as he is still far from his true home. The chorus repeats this theme of longing and homesickness, as the singer pleads with his loved one to let him return home.


The third verse brings a new layer of complexity to the song, as the singer reflects on the fact that he feels like he is living someone else's life. He acknowledges that he has had success and opportunities, but that this has come at a cost of feeling disconnected and missing his true home. He speaks of how his loved one could not join him because it was not their dream, but that they always believed in him. The final stanza brings the song full circle, as the singer reflects on another winter day passing and his continued longing to return home.


Overall, "I Wanna Go Home" is a poignant and relatable song that touches on universal themes of homesickness, loss, and longing. The melody is simple and evocative, providing a perfect backdrop for the heartfelt lyrics.


Line by Line Meaning

Another summer day
Yet another day of this season has come and gone


Has come and gone away
The day has started and ended, almost seamlessly


In Paris and Rome
I'm traveling the world, but it's not enough to replace the longing for home


But I wanna go home
Despite the luxuries I'm surrounded with, I still yearn for my home


Maybe surrounded by
Although there may be a significant amount of people around me


A million people I
Even if the total number of people present near me reaches a great extent


Still feel all alone
I feel lonely, like I'm not being able to connect with anyone


Oh, I miss you, you know
It's difficult to come to terms with the fact that I'm away from the person I yearn for the most


And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
I still cherish the letters that I wrote to you


Each one a line or two
Each of them had a few words, expressing my emotions


"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
The repeated semblance of sentences expressing my well-being, and enquiring about yours


Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
I'm aware that sending them won't make up for me not being there with you


My words were cold and flat
The words I wrote were devoid of emotions


And you deserve more than that
I know you deserve better than what I wrote in those letters


Another aeroplane
A plane that ferries people through the air, like many times before


Another sunny place
A destination, with ample sunlight


I'm lucky I know
I recognize that I've been fortunate to have experienced these luxuries


But I wanna go home
Despite my good fortune, I still yearn for my home


Let me go home
Allow me to return to a place where I truly belong


I'm just too far from where you are
The distance between us seems too much to bear


I wanna come home
I wish to make my way back to my true home


And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
I feel like an imposter, leading a life that isn't meant for me


It's like I just stepped outside
It feels like I've been temporarily removed from my actual life


When everything was going right
A life full of contentment and happiness, which now, seems like a distant memory


And I know just why you could not
I'm aware of the reason why you refrained from accompanying me on this journey


Come along with me
Why you couldn't accompany me on this journey


"Cause this was not your dream"
The reason being, this journey wasn't your aspiration, or didn't resonate with you


But you always believed in me
Despite your own lack of interest in this journey, you always provided me with your unwavering support


Another winter day has come
As a new day of this season dawns


And gone away
And ends almost immediately


In even Paris and Rome
Even the most beautiful and tourist-worthy cities do not compare to my home


And I wanna go home
I still yearn for my home, even in beautiful cities like Paris and Rome


It will all be all right
I'm optimistic that everything will fall into place once I'm back home


I'll be home tonight
I'm returning to my truest abode tonight


I'm coming back home
I'm making my way back to the place where I truly belong

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mmm
May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby, how are you?
Well I would send them but I know
That it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that
Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmm, I got to go home
Let me go home
I'm just too far
From where you are
I wanna come home
And I feel just like
I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
That this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
In each one a line or two
"I'm fine baby, how are you?"
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
Mmmm, I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far
From where you are
I wanna come home

And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
And in Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people
I Still feel alone
Oh, let me go home
Oh, I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I've had my run
Baby, I'm done
I gotta go home

Let me go home
It will all be alright
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home



@SteveGamlin

For me and my Tina, this is one of 'our' songs because we re-connected and fell in love at a time when we lived 1000+ miles apart.
Then, when we did finally live in the same state, she traveled often for work, and I was speaking.
My business was just beginning to grow.
My confidence wavered.
The lyric from this song that still hits my heart like a brick, every time:
"And I knew just why you could not come along with me.
This was not your dream, but you always believed in me."
❤ ❤ ❤
She always did...and still does.

I'm a Zimbabwean living in South Africa. Though life is so hard and unbearable back home, I still miss home. Hope one day politicians will change their hearts and care about ordinary citizens and change lives. I wanna go home.
