歌詞

[Verse 1]

M:

Highway hummin’

Window down

Dust on my boots

One more small town

Saw that sign

Said “Welcome back”

Felt my shoulders finally slack

F:

I’ve been countin’ every mile

Picture frames

Your mama’s smile

Dinner on that faded cloth

Kids’ shoes piled by the walk

[Chorus]

M+F:

We’re goin’ home

Back to the porchlight

Where the day lets go and the sky turns gold

Where every worry gets small in the half-light

And stories sound better every time they’re told

Lay our bags by the door

Let the night unfold

We’re goin’ home

[Verse 2]

M:

Your daddy in his easy chair

Baseball game hums through the air

He won’t say it

But I know

He’s been waitin’ for us slow

F:

Mama’s hummin’ in the kitchen

Old hymn she’s always missin’

Steam on that old window pane

Same song

New quiet in my veins

[Chorus]

M+F:

We’re goin’ home

Back to the porchlight

Where the day lets go and the sky turns gold

Where every worry gets small in the half-light

And stories sound better every time they’re told

Lay our bags by the door

Let the night unfold

We’re goin’ home

[Bridge]

M:

All those years we chased that line

City clocks and overtime

F:

Funny how this driveway dust

Feels more like the two of us

M+F:

Sun sinks low on the gravel lane

Every breath says “you made it

You’re safe”

[Chorus]

M+F:

We’re goin’ home

Back to the porchlight

Where the crickets sing and the air turns cold

Where every heartache fades in the firelight

And laughter comes easy

Wide and full

Kick our shoes off the step

Let the night take hold

We’re goin’ home

Yeah

We’re goin’ home (Mm)

We’re finally home
