Home Again In My Heart

One in a million in a lonely town Two hundred people trying to keep me down I've taken all I can, I ain't lookin' back. Small town boy in a back yard lot Can't make a living with the luck I've got I'm gonna leave it all, I ain't looking back. That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young. But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down. Still I go home again in my heart. My father worked hard on the railroad track; 37 years cut across his back He gave it all he had for what he believed. Like every other kid that came before I grew up believing there was something more And I still believe, I still believe. That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young. But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down. Still I go home again in my heart. But I can still see the lightning on a warm summer night And the rain on the roof when I close my eyes; I can still hear us laughing on the front porch in the dark. There are days when I know that I've traveled so far That I'll never find the road leading back to the start Still I go home again in my heart Still I go home again in my heart In my heart, in my heart
