Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
It's your heart that keeps you running
And it's your mind that I can't change
Will you ever be returning
And coming back again, coming back again
Take me back to the place where it started
Take me back to the warmth of the sun
To the place where the rivers meet the ocean
Take me back home
Yeah, that's where I belong
And have you ever really wondered
As we walk beneath the stars
Will we find the truth, will we discover
It isn't very far, it's not so very far
I wonder if I've gone too far
Lord, please help me get back home
Where I belong
Back where I belong
Where I belong
Oh, where I belong
Yeah, that's where I belong
It's your heart that keeps you running
