Bill Miller - The Road Home lyrics

rate me

There's a hitchhiker standing on the side of the road off of exit 104

And a forgotten billboard for a all night diner that ain't even there no more

Three deserted farms just like monuments standing cold and still

While a hawk and a lonely state trooped stand guard out on lookout hill

CHORUS:

I'm just following the road home on a trail of memories

Just a battle weary native son is there still a home for me

When you see me coming don't you turn away

'Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay

And a little understanding on the road home

The road home

There's still mud on my boots from across the sea

Ain't gonna kick it off

Cause it makes me remember what I need to forget

When I'm feeling lonesome and lost

There's a river of scars and it's running deep

Right down to my very soul

And this battle rages every step of the way

While I try not to let it show

(REPEAT CHORUS)
