Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come away, hearts grow fonder
I know what it's there for
I know what it's worth
I know what it's there for
I know what it's worth
Soon we will belong (/be home?)
Back where we belong
Soon she's coming, back where we belong
Come away, soon we will
Come away, hearts drive on
I know what it's there for
I know what it's worth, hey!
Soon we will belong
Summer's coming, now we're coming
Back where we belong
Soon she's coming, back where we belong
Soon we will be strong
Summer's coming, now she's coming
Back where we belong
Soon we're coming, back where we
Back where we belong.
Back where we belong.
