Europe - Homeland lyrics

Remember that summer Down by the shoreline I still can hear those old Forgotten songs And we made promises To last forever I just can't belive those Days are gone There used to be a place That we could call our own We used to think tomorrow Was a long, long time But sadness filled my heart When I knew the moment had come When I had to leave those days Behind I felt so free Where I wanted to be The days went so fast How I wish they could last So far from my homeland I'm lost in time My soul's still searchin' For that peace of mind Those sacred landscapes Come miles around And my heart's still beatin' For those country grounds Remember when our hearts Were filled with laughter It echoes in my trail Of fallen tears But no matter where I am today Or what the future might bring I will remember those Long gone years I can't let go I wanna know Does it have to end For the best of friends So far from my homeland I'm lost in time And my soul's still searchin' For that peace of mind Those sacred landscapes Come miles around And my heart's still beatin' For those country grounds Lord I know That those days are gone Long, long, gone I felt so free Where I wanted to be The days went so fast How I wish they could last
