Write me a letter, play me a song
Write me a tune for when I come along, I'm near town
And home is where I'll stay

I have been strolling thousands of miles, just to be with her
Just to arrive and stand down, peaceful as I am

Oh my darling, I am, home my darling, I am home
Oh my darling, you have, grown my darling, you have grown

I have seen winters, colder than yours
I have seen friends left on far removed shores
It's allright, I'm here I'm still around

I was a conscript, prisoner of war
I had been captured, and could run no more
But I left, and made my way to you

Oh my darling, I am, home my darling, I am home
Oh my darling, you have, grown my darling, you have grown
