Goin’ Home

Mary Chapin Carpenter

[Verse 1]
This morning I work up with the feelin'
That I'd been away too long
All this blacktop runnin' underneath my wheels
Makes me feel too gone
Well I could use a lot of sleep
And a little bit of time on my own
And then the sight of you
Just waiting for me with open arms

[Refrain]
Goin' home
Goin' home

[Verse 2]
Now it's the middle of November
And the lilies bloom by the Gage springs
Yeah, I can see us flyin' down the Craig store road
Like we've got wings
Turn the radio off, baby, all I want to do is hear you sing
Yeah, I can close my eyes and perfectly imagine everything

[Refrain]
Goin' home, goin' home
Goin' home, goin' home

[Bridge]
All the time that I been takin'
All the things I've never found
Suddenly were waiting for me
The minute that I slowed it down

All the time that I been takin'
All the things I've never found
Suddenly were waiting for me
The minute that I turned around

[Verse 3]
Tonight I'm gonna wish you
All the things that love can bring
And then I'll climb right up
And watch the sun go down on top of Reilly's hill
I feel the beautiful breeze
Just a-slippin' in under the windowsill
And smell the perfume of the night
From those lilies of those fields

[Refrain]
Goin' home, goin' home
Goin' home, goin' home
Goin' home, goin' home
Goin' home, goin' home
