Back Home
Schuhmacher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't know, if I may back home
And I don't know, if I may back home
Down at the bottom of the ocean
Down at the bottom of the sea
I will stay down, down
I don't know where to go
Across this road, mh
Down at the bottom of the ocean
Down at the bottom of the sea
I will stay down, down
I don't know where to go
We'll sail tonight
Across this road, mh
(Just forget)
And I don't know, if I may back home
And I don't know, if I may back home
And I don't know, if I may back home
And I don't know, if I may back home

Overall, the lyrics to "Back Home" are somewhat cryptic but convey a clear emotional tone of uncertainty and confusion. The repetition of certain phrases and the use of vivid imagery help to create a strong sense of mood and atmosphere.
