The closing song on GBS s 2010 album, Safe Upon The Shore. A fabulous, underrated
song in my opinion!
[Chorus 1]
(N.C.)
I don t wanna go home,
Don t bring the lights up,
don t ring the bell.
Once the whistle has blown,
God only knows when we ll meet here again.
[Bridge 1]
Tell the band not to stop,
Tell the curtain, don t drop,
Keep the bar stool King,
High on his throne!
[Chorus 2]
I don t wanna go Home,
Don t wanna leave till it s all said and done.
Guess I should have known,
I d want to stay until we d seen the sun.
[Bridge 2]
It s just the moment to make..
This perfect mistake.
Until we spend hours alone.
I don t want to go home.
It s a matter of fact..
You can never look back,
It s a lesson that some never learn.
But I won t forget it.
I won t be caught treading,
On the bridges that I myself burned
-KEY CHANGES FROM D TO E-
[Instrumental] (x2)

[Bridge 3]
It s a matter of fact,
You can never look back,
It s a lesson that some never learn.
But I won t forget it.
I won t be caught treading,
On the bridges that I myself burned.
[Chorus 3]
I don t wanna go home,
I ve been gone forever,
I don t wanna face,
All the punches I ve thrown,
And all the wounded who fueled my escape.
[Bridge 4]
Tell the band not to stop,
Tell the curtain, don t drop,
Keep the bar stool King,
High on his throne!
Cause somewhere in the dark
There s a well-broken heart,
Who s willing to cast the first stone.
[Outro]
