|
Midnight on a southern highway |
|
Don't know if I'm going the right way |
|
I haven't seen a single sign for miles |
|
All this stormy weather |
|
Keeping us from being together |
|
How long has it been since I've seen your smile |
|
In this tunnel called the night |
|
I can finally see a light |
|
I've got a burning deep inside |
|
I thought you might understand |
|
I'm drivin' as fast as I can |
|
And you said you'd wait for me |
|
CHORUS |
|
Goin' home |
|
Cause I've been away much too long |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back to the place where my heart belongs |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back where I left my family |
|
Goin' home |
|
And I hope that they're still waitin' there for me |
|
In the eyes of the legal tender |
|
You're the one who must surrender |
|
I think they call it responsibility |
|
I'm a man in emotion |
|
With only one compulsion |
|
I've got to follow these dreams inside my heart |
|
I'm not looking for a fight |
|
No one's wrong and no one's right |
|
Maybe we all need time apart |
|
So please understand |
|
I'm doin' the best that I can |
|
And you said you'd wait for me |
|
CHORUS |
|
Goin' home |
|
Cause I've been away much too long |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back to the place where my heart belongs |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back where I left my sanity |
|
Goin' home |
|
And I hope that it's still waitin' there for me |
|
SOLO |
|
I thought you'd might understand |
|
I'm drivin'as fast as I can |
|
And you said you'd wait for me |
|
CHORUS |
|
Goin' home |
|
Cause I've been away much too long |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back to the place where my heart belongs |
|
Goin' home |
|
Going back where I left my family |
|
Goin' home |
|
And I hope that they're still waiting there for me |
|
Going home |
|
Going home |
|
Yeah, baby |
