Goin' Home

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
