The Alan Parsons Project

Far Away From Home

Written by Eric Woolfson and Alan Parsons

The lament of The Wolfman, The Ratman and The Judge who together with Dora and Little Han, comprise Freud's five classic cases.


We've come so far

To hear the words

Of hope and consolation

With no star to guide us through the night


Through many realms of fantasy

We wander and we roam

Far away from home


Then all of those

We held so dear

Grew tired of understanding

And we dream through the endless night alone

What sun can light this darkness

And what hand remove this stone


Far away, far away

Like a leaf that the wind has blown

Far away, far away

Far away from home

Far away from home


All that I am

What I've become

Will I ever find my place in the sun


What sun can light this darkness

And what hand remove this stone


Far away, far away

Will I ever find my place in the sun

Far away


I could be happy then

Far away

I'll find Jerusalem

Far away from home

Far away from home
