Back Where I Belong

I moved back to the country in the summer of '21

We'd all been locked away from everyone we loved

Couldn't bear another second in that sad apartment block

Wishing for the life I'd lost

Traded the highway for an old dirt track

And I'm back, back where I belong

My family's down the road

My neighbours call across the fence

To give me food they've grown

And I can see the stars at night

I left the city lights behind

I got a piece of dirt that's mine

And I'm back

Oh, I'm back

I cried each time we had to leave a place we didn't own

All those memories we left in a temporary home

But this time, it was different, we signed on the dotted line

And I knew that we'd be fine

And I broke down as I unpacked

And I'm back, back where I belong

My family's down the road

My neighbours call across the fence

To give me food they've grown

And I can see the stars at night

I left the city lights behind

I got a piece of dirt that's mine

And I'm back

Oh, I'm back

I'm back where I belong

Well, I'm back where the road seems like it never ends

And I'm back where the answers are just around the bend

And I'm back where it feels just like I never left

Well, I'm back where the sky is bigger than our dreams

And I'm back where the silence can whisper what you need

Sometimes your true north is way out west

And I'm back, back where I belong

My family's down the road

My neighbours call across the fence

To ask me, "How's the show?"

And I can see the stars at night

I left the city lights behind

I got a piece of dirt that's mine

And I'm back

Oh, I'm back

I'm back where I belong
