My Way Back

人声 : High Valley
.
Momma put a Bible in my glove box
And a hot homemade apple pie in the passenger seat
She said "You'll always be my baby"
She planted a kiss and a couple of tears on my cheek
Dad slipped me some traveling cash
through a map with it highlighted right on the dash
And I realized as I look back... that
.
They weren't just saying goodbye
They weren't just seeing me off
They were just making sure
that I don't forget where I'm from
Momma loved and daddy worked
They lived their lives just to make sure I know
My way back home
.
And I can still smell momma's kitchen
Feel every single prayer she says for me
I can point these wheels towards that sunset
Without a fear, without a doubt,
daddy said "Go get that dream"
I left behind a pie crumb trail
just in case I get lost, fall flat or fail
And if the wind should lead my sail
.
They weren't just saying goodbye
They weren't just seeing me off
They were just making sure
that I don't forget where I'm from
Momma loved and daddy worked
And they lived their lives just to make sure I know
.
My way back to the door that's always open
To the light that's always on
To the love that's always waiting after being good too long
Way too long...
.
Now I know
They weren't just saying goodbye
They weren't just seeing me off
They were just making sure that I don't forget where I'm from
"Go out there and do your family proud son!"
Momma loved and daddy worked
They lived their lives just to make sure I know
I'll always know my way back home
.
Momma loved and daddy worked
They lived their lives just to make sure I know
.
