Lyrics :
She's a dreamer she's a universe inside
She's a sleeper down on the ocean ride
She's a breaker a million miles behind
on the next boat she'll make it there in time
All she wants is a home away from home
He's a maker a mountain when he treads
He's a claimer for the new dawn ahead
He's a finder at the last port of call
On the first ship before the anchor falls
All he wants is a home away from home
They're old now but they still remember when
They knew how they'd lose out in the end
They're takers every woman every man
On the last liner to sail or be damned
All they want is a home away from home
How they wander how they roam
All aboard hurry home
All they want is a home away from home
She's a dreamer she's a universe inside
She's a sleeper down on the ocean ride
She's a breaker a million miles behind
on the next boat she'll make it there in time
All she wants is a home away from home
He's a maker a mountain when he treads
He's a claimer for the new dawn ahead
He's a finder at the last port of call
On the first ship before the anchor falls
All he wants is a home away from home
They're old now but they still remember when
They knew how they'd lose out in the end
They're takers every woman every man
On the last liner to sail or be damned
All they want is a home away from home
How they wander how they roam
All aboard hurry home
All they want is a home away from home

Piers Faccini France
If my songs were maps I'd want them to stretch from the English moors to the Saharan dunes via the plains of the Mediterranean.
