"Soon As I Get Home" from "The Wiz"

There's a feeling here inside
That I cannot hide
And I know I've tried
But it's turning me around

I'm not sure that I'm aware
If I'm up or down
If I'm here or there
I need both feet on the ground

Why do I feel like I'm drowning
When there's plenty of air?
Why do I feel like frowning?
I think the feeling is fear

Here I am in a different place
In a different time
In this time and space
But I don't want to be here

I was told I must see the Wiz
But I don't know
What a wizard is
I just hope the Wiz is there

Maybe I'm just going crazy
Letting myself get uptight
I'm acting just like a baby
But I'm gonna be alright
Soon as I get home
As soon as I get home

In a different place
In a different time
Different people around me
I would like to know
Of their different world
And how different they find me

And just what's a Wiz
Is it big, will it scare me?
If I ask to leave
Will the Wiz even hear me?
How will I know then
If I can ever get home again?

Here I am alone
Though it feels the same
I don't know where I'm going
I'm here on my own
And it's not a game
And a strange wind is blowing

I am so amazed
At the things that I see here
Don't want to be afraid
I just don't want to be here
In my mind this is clear
What am i doing here?

I wish I was home
