Way Back Home  

Way back home

that's where I'll go

I left it many years ago to find

something of my own

something that was mine

but the woman I've become

would never recognize

the girl I left behind

Way back home    

that's where I'll go     

the scotch I'm     

drinking's 12 years old     

& I never thought     

I'd feel so low     

these so-called      

friends of mine     

think life's a dirty joke     

they'd never recognize     

the girl I left behind      

d

be where I want to       

be where I want to be      

d

                Way back home

                that's where I'm going

                the bartender's calling closing time

                but I'm ready for an all-nite drive

                just the silence of the highway

                underneath the velvet sky

                I'll follow that white line

                to the girl I left behind
