Song Lyric Sunday

Humans began building structures for shelter roughly 300,000 to 500,000 years ago, evolving from using natural caves to creating huts from branches, animal hides, and bones.  Houses are more than just the walls around us or the roof over our heads, as they are places where we feel comfortable and we connect to them because we feel that is where we belong.

Coming Home. Song by Old Dominion ‧ 2024

OverviewLyrics

… I’ve been so many miles
I’ve done forgot how long I’ve been gone
I’ve worn a hole right through my soul and both these shoes I’ve got on
I ran the streets, I’ve shot the breeze
I’ve seen the world but found out
My ragged heart’s still on a string that’s tied to you

… And, I’m on my way (hey), I’m almost there
I look like hell, baby, but I don’t care
Take out your best dress, leave it on the floor
I’m coming in hot, baby, can’t wait no more, yeah

… So baby leave the light on, and let your hair down
I’m your midnight rider, it won’t be long now
Been driving all night, so Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I’m coming home from war

… You kept a candle in the window, waiting, burning for me
I’m turning home
I’ll turn you on as soon as I turn the key
Your gravity is pulling me, you’re all I need

… I’m on my way (hey), I’m almost there
I look like hell, baby, but I don’t care
Yeah, this old highway is through with me
Yeah, there’s a million winding roads
But, just one place I wanna be

… So baby leave the light on, and let your hair down
I’m your midnight rider, it won’t be long now
Been driving all night, so Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I’m coming home from war

… I’m on my way
Hey, hey
I’m on my way

… So baby leave the light on, and let your hair down
I’m your midnight rider, it won’t be long now
Been driving all night, so Katy bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I’m coming home from war

… Just like I’m coming home from war
I’m on my way
I’m on my way
