Homeward Bound

Every time I close my eyes, I'm walking west along that river shore Searching for the innocence I knew back when I was there before And I still smell the blossom on the breeze where all the hawthorn trees had grown Holding tight to handlebars as it got dark, and we were racing home Homeward-bound, and not far left to go That far away horizon never taught me anything I didn't know Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Long days in the summertime, just spending every hour as we'd choose Foreign wars and credit scores were nothing but distractions on the news Didn't know a thing about what lay beyond the mountains far away Shortcuts through the fields and over fences in the last light of the day Homeward-bound, and not far left to go That far away horizon never taught me anything I didn't know Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Homeward-bound, and not far left to Homeward-bound, and not far left to go That far away horizon never taught me anything I didn't know Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Sun beats through the window pane, it's just another autumn afternoon But the roses on the table now are not as red as they were back in June It helps me when I think that all the love you gave is etched upon my mind And everywhere I go I know you're watching on a couple steps behind Homeward-bound, and not far left to go That far away horizon never taught me anything I didn't know Homeward-bound, and not far left to go Homeward-bound, and not far left to Homeward bound and not far left to go That far away horizon never taught me anything I didn't know Homeward bound and not far left to go Homeward bound and not far left to go Homeward bound and not far left to go
