My dearest love, I miss you so
I’m writing you from Moab
It’s dusty where I stay
And the walls seem thin
I can hear their din
Today
 
The siesta has been good to me
Brought me and you a child or three
But you know I’ve got to leave
The fans all scream
I must rejoin the team
Alone
 
I know they talk of violence
From the gods
But I’ll be alright
I swear
 
I’ve missed the fans acclaiming every word
I’ve missed the way we all seem so absurd 
But most of all I’ve missed my friends and laughing every night 
The game’s been good to me, and I swear I’ll be good back
 
So we’re back on base again and there’s a joy in all our veins 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
The gods seem to like it and the umps are playing fair 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
We’re alright
 
The weather’s always perfect, clear and blue 
What that means for us, I’ve got no clue 
It’s fine for now and that’s all that I need to do my job 
I’ve just got to get my head down, give the fans what they deserve

So we’re back on base again and there’s a joy in all our veins 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
The gods seem to like it and the umps are playing fair 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
We’re alright

I’m lost without you
I’m lost without you my dear
It’s been nice, but it still doesn’t feel like home 
Just gotta make it to the end of the season
 
Still I’ve missed the fans acclaiming every word 
I’ve missed the way we all seem so absurd 
But most of all I’ve missed my friends and laughing every night 
The game’s been good to me, and I swear I’ll be good back

So we’re back on base again and there’s a joy in all our veins 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
The gods seem to like it and the umps are playing fair 
It’s The Return 
Now we’ve returned 
We’re alright
