Home to the Heart
-
Verse 1: I’ve been throwing my heart to the wind
And riding the steel rails
Saving my stories of darkness for one moonlight chance
Well, I thought that fortune was waiting for me in the city
But the further I get from those city lights,
The closer to the stars I dance
Chorus: Now there’s only one hill left to climb
And I’m already there in my mind
Well, I’ve been to the end of the line
Now I’m headed home
Verse 2: It was half past the back side of midnight
When I met the drifter
He passed me the bottle
But he could not remember my name
I stared in his eyes, as cold as the winds of December
And the sound of his voice
Was as lonesome as our empty train
Chorus: Now there’s only one hill left to climb
And I’m already there in my mind
Well, I’ve been to the end of the line
Now I’m headed home
Bridge: Well, I could have flown
But like you I’ve been growing
So tired of hurrying around
Well, it takes just a little more time
But these rails suit me fine
Well, they keep both my feet on the ground
Chorus: Now there’s only one hill left to climb
And I’m already there in my mind
Well, I’ve been to the end of the line
Now I’m headed home
Now there’s only one hill left to climb
And I’m already there in my mind
Well, I’ve been to the end of the line
Now I’m headed home
I’m headed home again
I’m headed home again
I’m headed home
