Listening to Celtic Thunder's new album, Take Me Home, gave me all sorts of fodder for filking. Here's a reflection by the speaking members of the Oceanic Six as they return to civilization, to the tune of the title track.
We Are Home
Jack: At my dad's urgin',
I became a surgeon.
Now I can focus on perfecting my skill.
Kate: I should find a lawyer,
And thanks to Sawyer,
I have a request to fulfill.
Hurley: My mom is waiting,
And I've been debating.
I might be ready to let Dad try again.
Sun: I'll have this baby,
Then I think that maybe
I'll go and track down Ben.
All: Home.
Yes, we are home,
The place we never thought we would see.
Sun: I wish that Jin was here with me.
All: But we are home!
Sayid: Nadia, where are you?
I've come too far to
Disregard the romance that I have dreamed of for years.
All: Faced with this ending,
No use pretending
Our eyes have been free of tears.
All: Home.
Yes, we are home,
The place we never thought we would see.
Kate: I wish that Sawyer was with me.
All: But we are home!
Jack: We are home after months away.
Hurley: Now I wonder if we'll stay.
Jack: Home.
(Sun and Kate: Jin and Sawyer.)
Sayid: Yes, we are home.
(Jack and Hurley: Claire and Charlie.)
Kate: The press is making a mighty fuss
(Sayid: Who knew that only six of us would return?)
Hurley: We wish our friends
(Sun: I'm so lonely)
Hurley: Were here with us.
(Sun: And I'm yearning to be with him again.)
Jack: But we are home!
Jack: Home.
(Sun and Kate: Jin and Sawyer.)
Sayid: Yes, we are home.
(Jack and Hurley: Claire and Charlie.)
Kate: The press is making a mighty fuss
(Sayid: Who knew that only six of us would return?)
Hurley: We wish our friends
(Sun: I'm so lonely)
Hurley: Were here with us.
(Sun: And I'm yearning...)
Jack: But we are home!
All: We are home!
