Performed by: Susan Egan [lead vocal]
Yes, I made the choice
For Papa I will stay
But I don't deserve to lose
my freedom in this way
You...Monster!
If you think that what you've
done is right
Well then...you're a fool
Think again
Is this home?
Is this where I should learn
to be happy?
Never dreamed
That a home could be dark and
cold
I was told
Everyday in my childhood even
when we grow old
Home will be where the heart
is
Never were words so true
My heart's far, far away
Home is too
Is this home?
Is this what I must learn to
believe in?
Try to find
Something good in this tragic
place
Just in case
I should stay here forever
held in this empty space
Oh, but that won't be easy
I know the reason why
My heart's far, far away
Home's a lie
What I'd give to return
To the life that I knew lately
But I know now I can
Solve my problems going back
Is this home?
Am I here for a day or forever
Shut away
From the world until who knows
when
Oh, but then
As my life has been altered
once it can change again
Build higher walls around me
Change every lock and key
Nothing lasts, nothing holds
All of me
My heart's far, far away
Home and free...
