George Gershwin – Home Blues lyrics

[11 Second Intro]
An American in Paris
on a holiday
An American in Paris
just a boy at play
Mid the magic of the city
Mid the scenes so gay
He hears a voice a call-in
over the sea
The voice of homeland say-in
come back, to me
It haunts him
his thoughts go fly-in
It haunts him
his lonely heart is sighing
(Musical Pause)
Home....
That's where the sunshine
learned to shine
(Pause)
Home....
A place that love
has made divine
(Pause)
So my eyes are turning
to where I left this
yearning heart of mine
(Pause)
Blues....
I get the blues
when I'm away
(Pause)
Blues....
I hear them calling
night and day
(Pause)
Going back forever
I'll never never never
more to roam
You're wondering why
he's coming home
(Musical Pause)
Going back forever
I'll never never never
more to roam
(Pause)
You're wondering why
he's coming home...
(Pause)
You're wondering why
he's coming home........
[The End]
