The lyrics are expressing a doubt the woman has

When the evening falls

And the daylight is fading,

From within me calls

Could it be I am sleeping?

Shortly after falling asleep she feels that she has gone away

For a moment I stray,

Then it holds me completely

Close to home - I cannot say

Close to home feeling so far away

From these lyrics we can understand that she is dreaming about that house, while she calls it "home".

The moment the woman finds the house, she recognizes the place

I am home - I know the way

I am home - feeling oh, so far away
