I'm back in the place where I belong...
back in that spot where I am strong
It's so simple being here
I don't know what it is you do,
but it puts me together where I was torn in two
and all my puzzled pieces disappear
Nantucket...did you cast your spell or is it me?
I can't tell...
you're such a tiny island in such an endless sea,
but you feel like home to me
from so far away I have heard you call...
oh yes, my love, I heard it all
so gentle is that sweet, sweet voice
what have you done to me, you stole my heart, I seem to leave it behind whenever we're apart
It seems you never gave me any choice
chorus
there will be some times when I'm gone again...
off to other places, other friends
sometimes I won't be seeing you for a while
but you'll see my soul come sailing around
cause when I've lost the peace I found,
you rest my weary Spirit every time...
Nantucket...did you cast your spell or it is me?
I just can't tell...
you're such a tiny island in such an endless sea,
but you feel like home
