lyrics

Going Home
Words & Music: Chris Currie (2002)

I remember thinking
I’d have to keep my eyes open
Just a little longer
So I can look at your face
And lock it up inside my mind
So anytime I close my eyes
I can call you back to life

Pre-chorus:
But now I’m driving toward you
And I can see you in mind
Clear as day
You’re waiting for me
As I have waited for you for so long
Waiting for this day
Waiting for this moment

Chorus:
When all my life
My roots have run deep
In this Georgia red clay
But right now as I leave this place
I’m going to you
And it feels like I’m going home

I never guessed
It could have been this hard
To say goodbye
It always seemed a lifetime away
But when that day came
It seemed to last a lifetime
Another lifetime until I see you again

Pre-chorus
