Redcar Lane was the backdrop of my early days
Too dark outside at Borough Park
Took me a while to find my place in Rye Hills School
Until our Simon played guitar
I loved the people there, they always backed the underdogs
And that was us down to a tea
The people ask me what it's like to see Los Angeles
I'll say, "It ain't no Redcar Beach"
Take me home, I just wanna feel ya
Take me home, give me all your love
Take me home, I belong in Teeside
It's long way back
Take me home
Take me home
So many miles and too many streets away
Too long chasin' the gold
Since I was a child, I left of my trail of enemies
All in the name of hope
I hold my craft in the lives down by the riverside
I stuck a target on my back
Growin' up 'round here, I learned no one will pity me
And I'm so thankful for that
Take me home, I just wanna feel ya
Take me home, give me all your love
Take me home, I belong in Teeside
Well, it's long way back
Take me home, I just wanna feel ya
Take me home, I said, give me all your love
Take me home, said, I belong in Teeside
And it's long way back
Take me home
Mm, take me home
Oh, take me home, take me home
Take me home
Said, this is my homecoming
This is my homecoming now
This is my homecoming
It's my homecoming
