They called it paradise, I don't know why.
You call someplace paradise, kiss it goodbye.

—Eagles, "The Last Resort"

With their tanks and their guns,
Oh, my God, what have they done
To the town I loved so well?

—Phil Coulter, "The Town I Loved So Well"

"Hello, Mum," Harry said with his voice wavering, "I'm back." And he hugged her, amid the noisy mechanical sounds and the smell of burned gasoline; and Harry started crying, because he knew that nothing could go back, least of all him.

—Harry Potter, Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, chapter 36

Well, I came a long way to be here today
And I left you so long on this avenue.
And here I stand in the strangest land
Not knowing what to say or do.
As I gaze around at these strangers in town
I guess the only stranger is me.
And I wonder, yes, I wonder,
Is this the way life's meant to be?

—Electric Light Orchestra, "The Way Life's Meant to be"

You can't go home again. That's supposed to be about maturity. It's not the same when you don't have the option.

—Aveline, Dragon Age 2

And there's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
To return to

—Devo, "No Place Like Home"
