[Verse 1]
Home, it's not brick or stone
Or comfort in the firelight
Not in that sense anyway
Dreams, if only I had known
But these things always seem
So much clearer at a distance

[Chorus]
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'd burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again

[Verse 2]
Words only could break that ring
You know the words still sting
So much harder than the blows ever did
Heart, though it's hot and violent
My head is cool and quiet
As the ashes that fall from the sky

[Chorus]
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'd burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again

[Bridge]
Now, I know this shattered feeling
Trampled but still breathing
I'm just waiting for a good day

[Chorus]
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there
I'd burn the place to the ground
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again

[Outro]
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again
I'm never going back there
I'm never going back there again

DURAN DURAN has a total of over 80 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 30 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. They’ve managed to fuse pop music, art, technology and fashion with a unique sense of style and confidence. Princess Diana also admitted that Duran Duran was her favourite Band among others.

Bassist John Taylor has said the original vision for the band’s sound was ‘to fuse the Sex Pistols and Chic’ after hearing those two bands back-to-back on a pub jukebox one night.
