Kygers Hill

Finally hit the driveway, fifteen miles out from the highway

Crack one open, no one's watching

Bedroom's looking smaller or am I just getting older

Same old play things, and tattered window screens Neighbor down the road just got a brand new front-end loader

Everyone's jealous, this year's been such a mess

I'm coming over, but don't you know that I can't stay here for too long

I'm just a visitor, an inquisitor In the place that I call home

Across the Blue Ridge, where my heart is

I'm just here to say hello

Try to listen closely to the things that I once mostly Took for granted, disenchanted

Take a walk outside and try your best not to cry

Autumn blooming, so unpresuming

I'm coming over, but don't you know that I can't stay here for too long

I'm just a visitor, an inquisitor In the place that I call home

Across the Blue Ridge, where my heart is

I'm just here to say hello

Cresting over Kygers Hill

While late summer moves through the fields

Take it in, cause I won't be here long

For the time has come and gone
