The Souls Prodigal Lover Lyrics

A long time ago in a place so far away
There was a man and a lady who were living by the bay
Then came a time when the man wanted to sail the seven seas
And see the world and all it had to offer him

So he said to his lady, "Girl, I've got to go
I wanna live my life, and we're just gettin' old"
So off he went; he left the very next day, sailing,
Into the horizon trailing, never to return.

Town after town, he was just one of the wealthy faces
You could see him at the races, spending all his gold
Roaming the streets, seeing all the sights the world could offer
Soon he'd emptied out his coffers, and he was alone

Lady, lady I wanna go home, wanna come back to you
Lady, lady I wanna go home, wanna come back to you

I wanna go home to the place I know so well
To the arms of my lover, til the end of time to dwell
This ugly world has helped me open up my eyes to see
The wonders that I had, now I end my spree

Outro:
Lady, lady I wanna go home, wanna come back to you
