I copied these lyrics from The Roches' web site. (It's a good thing I found them; I would not have been able to distinguish "sea 'n' stars" from "seein' stars", which makes a kind of sense to me.) But I added the repeated lines "can we go home now" at the end, to correspond with what I hear in the recording.


CAN WE GO HOME NOW
As sung by The Roches on "Can We Go Home Now" (1995)

woke up alone
in a strange bed
lookin' around
shaking my head
pulled my boots on
went downstairs
she was sitting
in one of the chairs

can we go home now
was what I said
she looked at me
and said we
are home

matter with you
I nearly forgot
the difference between
what is and what's not
plenty of sky
castles of sand
sea 'n' stars
busted my hand

can we go home now
I've had enough
she looked at me
and said tough
luck
suck

watchin' TV
the whole day through
bough bending low
with nothin' to do
sun gone down
the railroad track
breathing a cry
when she comes back

can we go home now
I wanna go home
she looked away
and said please
stay

can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now
can we go home now [fade]
