[Chorus] I want [Verse 1] I look at pictures taken then, Back when I found a brand-new home A place I had to leave again A part of me ‘till then unknown I see myself, a different smile I miss the person that I see I miss her confidence and style This version, that was truly me. [Pre-Chorus] Oh - oh I have changed (changed, changed) Have returned - yet still remained (hey, hey) Part of me got left behind In that precious world of a different kind. [Chorus] I want to LIVE - fully again I want to burn with LIFE again Not just simmering away Brightly alive - every day [short instrumental] [Verse 2] I’m back here in the mountains I used to call home. They’re just as high, just as bold Exactly like I’ve always known. The flowers still have all their colour, The spring water tastes just as clear The people smile the way they did - So why do I feel so strange right here? [Pre-Chorus] Oh - oh I have changed (changed, changed) Have returned - yet still remained (hey, hey) Part of me got left behind In that precious world of a different kind. [Chorus] I want to LIVE - fully again I want to burn with LIFE again Not just simmering away Brightly alive - every day to [short instrumental] [Verse 3] These lands I once adored Still take my breath when I arrive And through a stranger’s curious eyes This place feels warm, untouched, alive. As a tourist, I’d fall in love I’d drink it in, I’d stay awhile - But living here feels different now Like wearing someone else’s smile. [Chorus] I want to LIVE LIVE - fully - fully again again I want I want to to burn burn with with LIFE LIFE again again Not Not just just simsimmermering ing aaway way BrightBrightly ly alive alive - every - every day day [Bridge] I still love my home It never leads me wrong It’s just my heart (my heart) has since has since moved on. moved (moved on.on) [fast rhythmic delivery] I want to belong… to a world of new sound and taste Where life is slower paced. Where friendshWhere friendships form easily Where I’m exotic and foreign, yet free. Where I’m desired, and fully inspired Where my mind is never tired. Where I learn something new each day Where I shine in a colourful way Where I have such an appetite for life! [Chorus] I want to LIVE - fully again I want to burn with LIFE again Not LIVE - fully again I want to burn with LIFE again Not just simmering away[Outro, music quieting and fading] I still love my home It never leads me wrong It’s just my heart has since moved on.
