Like some night bird, homeward wingin'

No longer make much sense

And those strangers' cold perceptions
Em A11
They've killed his confidence

When his tired voice is broken

Somehow not so wrong

Gm Dm
He was strong, but he was taken
Gm Dm
By the thought of his success

Those spotlight shadows, how they lured him

And took him like all the rest

No, it don't seem quite the same

He needs to hear a tender word
Em A11
Won't you sing him home again
