Home I'll Be Lyrics - Singles - Rita Macneil

I see the mountains, feel the salt air 

I have reasons to behold 

All the wonders that never cease to be 

You're as timeless as the water 

You're as gentle as the fields 

I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams 

And you never let the hard times 

Take away your soul 

And you stopped the tears from falling 

As you watched the young ones go 

You're as peaceful as a clear day 

You're as rugged as the seas 

I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams 

And home I'll be 

Home I'll be 

Banish thoughts of leaving 

Home I'll be 

I see the blue lakes, feel the passion 

I have reasons to believe 

There are places that will bring you to your knees 

I hear voices they are calling 

I have reason to pay heed 

I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams 

And you kept your arms wide open 

To let your children know 

Wherever there is distance 

The heart is always home 

You're as soulful as a choir 

You're as ancient as the hills 

I caress you, oh, Cape Breton in my dreams 

And home I'll be 

Home I'll be 

Banish thoughts of leaving 

Home I'll be 

And home I'll be 

Home I'll be 

Banish thoughts of leaving 

Home I'll be 

Banish thoughts of leaving 

Home I'll be
