Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What a strange day
Put your head out the doorway
Into the streets where the kids play
A game you used to know
[Verse 2]
As the day sets
Into the sky, bottle rockets
Mothers are callin'
It's time to come home
[Verse 3]
Oh
Oh
Oh
It's time to come home
[Verse 4]
Now it's nightfall
You've got plans for nothing at all
Well, who knows who might call
But then where would you go?
[Verse 5]
Go into the night light
Into the dim lights
Look for someone who will tell you
To come on home
[Verse 6]
Oh
Oh
Oh
It's time to come home
[Verse 7]
Our innocence is lost somewhere in Alphaville
Inside a dream, you are beside me still
When I awake, the dream is over
You're gone, gone, gone
[Verse 8]
What a strange time
As you flip on your house lights
And you realize
There's no one at home
