Instrumental:    • Enya - On My Way Home (Original Instrumental)  

"The journey home. A clear, fresh evening, quiet, restful. Thoughts are comforting, memories are warm and sweet. The air is so still reflection comes easy. A gentle snow may cocoon us and can deaden the night sounds, The mind can dwell on the good things in life as, with each step, one joyful thought begets another. The journey home is filled with the anticipation and excitement of arrival – family, friends, those we love. The solitary path has more room for wishes, in that stillness, in that night, going home".
Roma Ryan. The Memory of Trees promotional box, 1995

Enya: "It was written as one piece, but the chorus did change from the arrangement. Sometimes if it’s too subtle a chorus, it’s not dramatic enough. ‘On My Way Home’ is about all those wonderful memories and fond moments that you have when you’re on your way home. I know it’s that way for me, and we’re trying to get across that very positive feeling in the chorus".
Enya & The Memory of Trees, Gavin, 1996

The song incorporates "turn it up turn it up turn it up – bye, adieu" lyrics from ‘Orinoco Flow’.

Lyrics

I have been given
one moment from heaven
as I am walking
surrounded by night.
Stars, high above me,
make a wish under moonlight.

On my way home
I remember
only good days.
On my way home
I remember
all the best days.
I’m on my way home
I can remember
every new day.

I move in silence
with each step taken,
snow falling round me
like angels in flight.
Far in the distance
is my wish under moonlight.

On my way home
I remember
only good days.
On my way home
I remember
all the best days.
I’m on my way home
I can remember
every new day.
