Original Television Cast of the Wiz LIVE! & Shanice Williams -
The Wiz (Music from the NBC Television Event)
Soon As I Get Home
There's a feeling here inside that I cannot hide and I know I 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 is 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
I don't wanna 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
As soon as I get home
Soon as I get home
In a different place, in a different time
Different people around me
I would like to know of the different world
How different they find me
And just what's a wiz?
If it's big, will it scare me?
If I ask to leave, will the Wiz even hear me?
And how will I know then
If I will 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 the strange wind is blowing
I am so amazed by the things that I see here
Don't wanna be afraid
Oh, I just don't wanna be here
In my mind, this is clear
What am I doing here?
I wish I was home
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 is 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
I don't wanna 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
As soon as I get home
Soon as I get home
In a different place, in a different time
Different people around me
I would like to know of the different world
How different they find me
And just what's a wiz?
If it's big, will it scare me?
If I ask to leave, will the Wiz even hear me?
And how will I know then
If I will 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 the strange wind is blowing
I am so amazed by the things that I see here
Don't wanna be afraid
Oh, I just don't wanna be here
In my mind, this is clear
What am I doing here?
I wish I was home
