I Want to Go Home is the fourth song featured in Journey Beyond Sodor.

Lyrics[]

How much longer will I have to stay here?
One more day, or a month, or a year?
Far from everything I've ever known
Far away from the Island called Sodor
Far away from that Island called home
Where are you Annie and Clarabel?
Have you been left in the shed?
Or are you out on my branch line
With some other engine instead
I miss all of my friends
I miss hearing their names
Percy and Toby and Gordon
It's strange but I even miss James
I'm not joking, I even miss James
I wanted to have an adventure
I wanted to wander and roam
I wanted to see places I'd never seen
But now I just wanna go home
Tell me when do I get to go home
All I wanna do is go back to Sodor
All I wanna do is get back to my friends
I don't wanna be stuck here forever and always
In this hot house where work never ends
I wanted adventure
I wanted to roam
I wanted new places but now I want home
I mean it, I have to go home
So lock up your gates with your skeleton key
You can't make me stay where I don't wanna be
It's not right, it's not fair
This is no place for me
I want to, I need to, I have to be free to go home!
I'll find my way home
I'll make my way home
It's time to go home
I'm going home!

Trivia[]

  • In the lineup of engines in Thomas' memory:
    • Duck, Diesel 10, Winston and the Slip Coaches are the only standard gauge characters from Sodor in the CGI series who had been introduced at the time of Journey Beyond Sodor's release not to appear.
    • Hugo is the only character to appear who is not a permanent resident on Sodor.
    • Rusty is the only narrow-gauge engine to appear.
  • When Thomas is travelling on the Mainland map, many of England's landmarks are present, such as Blackpool Tower, York Minster, Shakespere's Birthplace, Skegness and Tower Bridge. It also showed Snowdonia which is in Wales.
  • This is the first song to be sung only by Thomas in the CGI series, since all the previous were sung with another engine(s) or coach(es). With the second being Sometimes You Make a Friend.
  • The lyrics "It's not right, it's not fair" are a likely reference to the Faith Hill song, The Way You Love Me.

Goofs[]

  • Rusty appears on standard gauge track in the song despite being a narrow gauge engine.
