NDP 1998 Theme Song - Home

Even though it has been ten years since this song was first sang at the national day parade, many still remember the original music of this song and are very familiar with it. It's a song that many Singaporean that feel close to heart. Many would sing along with the song whenever the music is played. Apart from that, the lyrics are rather meaningful too. Enjoy!

Lyrics:

Whenever I am feeling low
I look around me and I know
There's a place that will stay within me
Wherever I may choose to go
I will always recall the city
Know every street and shore
Sail down the river which brings us life
Winding through my Singapore

Chorus:
This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where that river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home

When there are troubles to go through
We'll find a way to start anew
There is comfort in the knowledge
That home's about its people too
So we'll build our dreams together
Just like we've done before
Just like the river which brings us life
There'll always be Singapore

(Repeat Chorus)

For this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know I'm home
