Home (Motown Version)

When I think of home I think of a place where
There's love overflowing
I wish I was home I wish I was back there
With the things I've been knowing
Wind that makes the tall trees bend into leaning
Suddenly the raindrops that fall have a meaning
Sprinklin' the scene makes it all clean
Maybe there's a chance for me to go back
Now that I have some direction
It would sure have been nice to be back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend let me start again
Suddenly my world's gone and changed it's face
But I still know where I'm going
I have had my mind spun around in space
And yet I've watched it growing
And if you're listening God
Please don't make it hard to know
If we should believe the things that we see
Tell us should we run away
Should we try and stay
Or would it be better just to let things be
Living here in this brand new world
Might be a fantasy
But it taught me to love
So it's real real to me
And I've learned
That we must look inside our hearts
To find a world full of love
Like yours like mine like home
