I'm drivin' down these old dirt roads I see the hills up on the right White grass, artificial ski slope I'm speedin' by the east coast train line And I've got a friend talkin' on the phone He said he'd help me pass the time I'm where the humour is dry as a bone But it rains here every night
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home To see the faces that I know Been away for way too long I'm comin' home I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home Where the trees arе always growin' wanna see where time has gonе I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home Put the kettle on the stove Leave a light on so they know I'm comin' home
I've got the wind in my sails I've got the red in my cheeks 'Cause I've been runnin' from this place Ever since seventeen Cobbled streets, evergreens Castles and housing schemes That whisky taste, out till late See that man, he's shitfaced
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home To see the faces that I know Been away for way too long I'm comin' home I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home Where the trees arе always growin' wanna see where time has gonе I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home Put the kettle on the stove Leave a light on so they know I'm comin' home
Flashback, I'm seventeen in the passenger seat You roll the windows down, 808s & Heartbreak plays Even in this small town, we still had the biggest dreams I always wanted somethin' more, I always wanted to be seen Still got that northern blood I've still got a sharp-edged tongue I hold it like a sword So everyone knows where I'm from You take for granted all the things That one day will be gone I should've held on for dear life when I was young I walk through the trees, I see the green I see the resevoir I see the nights, I see the lights I see my family fall apart I know the leaving, know the feelings Know the seasons change Things are different now but I still feel the same I've been around, I've seen it all There's nowhere else I'd rather go So won't you let them know?
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home
I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home So put the kettle on the stove leave a light on so they know I'm comin' home I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home I'm comin' home Put the kettle on the stove Leave a light on so they know I'm comin' home
