Take that look of worry, I'm an ordinary man They don't tell me nothing, so I find out all I can There's a fire that's been burning right outside my door I can't see, but I feel it, and it helps to keep me warm
So I, I don't mind, no I, I don't mind
Seems so long I've been waiting, still don't know what for There's no point in escaping, I don't worry anymore I can't come out to find you, I don't like to go outside They can turn off my feelings, like they're turning off the light
But I, I don't mind, no I, I don't mind Oh I, I don't mind, no I, I don't mind
So take, take me home, 'cos I don't remember, take, take me home 'Cos I don't remember, take, take me home, oh Lord
'Cos I've been a prisoner all my life, and I can see you
Take that look of worry, mine is an ordinary life Working when it's daylight and sleeping when it's night I have no far horizons, I don't wish upon no star They don't think that I listen, ah but I know who they are
But I, I don't mind, no I, I don't mind Oh I, I don't mind, no I, I don't mind
So take, take me home, 'Cos I don't remember, take, take me home 'Cos I don't remember, take, take me home 'Cos I don't remember, take, take me home, oh Lord
Well I've been a prisoner all my life, and I can see you
But I don't remember - take, take me home 'cos I don't remember - take, take me home (repeats)
