Home again, our day is over
Now it's time to close the door
Turning on all over England
You and I and millions more

All in all it's getting stranger
Can you see an end in sight
Calling all the other nations
Bring alive the world tonight

And if we never understand
Then every feeling second hand
Is new
And everything we ever know
Is just the background of a show
For you

Faraway a living legend
Wears a crown in no man's land
There's a war that's never over
All deny their heavy hand
Will it all be coming closer
If and how we're still alright
See it all before tomorrow
Bring alive the world tonight

And if we never understand
Then every feeling second hand
Is new
And everything we ever know
Is just the background of a show
For you
