Looking out at my window pane
|
Tears lingering with the rain
|
I'm so lonesome, I could cry
|
Just like old Hank
|
|
Staring down on the city street
|
Feeling empty and incomplete
|
There's a place I need to be
|
To feel my day
|
|
(Bridge)
|
A place I can go
|
Where I can be free
|
Where I can be happy and
|
Just be me
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Home, where the long wind's blowin'
|
And the river's is flowing
|
Run along, like a lazy bum in
|
The midnight summer night
|
Run along, fishing with a friend
|
And a fishing hope
|
Rocking, lay down my heavy load
|
Know that I am always welcomed home
|
|
I left home, I was 17
|
I had a lot of ambitious dreams
|
Seen a lot of those dreams come true
|
I had good luck
|
|
I ain't complaining, that's for sure
|
I got a lot to be thankful of
|
One of those things is a magic door
|
That opens up
|
|
(Bridge)
|
Back to the time when I was a kid
|
With the sounds of a cricket and (???)
|
|
(Chorus)
|
