[Intro] (Hmm...) Grandma... Grandpa... Highway... highway... I’m rollin’... rollin’... See you on the highway to home... [Chorus] See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely And Grandma, even though you’re gone, gone, gone You still got love from me, me, me My people, just rest your soul, soul, soul We’ll meet you on the highway to home [Verse 1] Now tell me what I’m gonna do When the nights get long, no light, no you Pictures waitin’ on the shelf in a line Ain’t a way to hug, can’t press rewind I lost my rock last winter, broke my heart Grandpa’s old stories still play in the dark But I keep drivin’, prayin’ every mile Tears on the wheel, memories make me smile God bless the days, every lesson you gave Even when the ache cut deep, I was saved Walkin’ through the storms, wind blowin’ cold Thinkin’ ’bout the hands that used to hold my soul Exactly how many years we got lastin’? While y’all laughin’, time passin’, moments movin’ past and But I feel you ridin’ with me, whispers in the wind On this highway to home, I’ma see you again [Chorus] See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely And Grandpa, even though you’re gone, gone, gone You still got love from me, me, me My people, just rest your soul, soul, soul We’ll meet you on the highway to home [Verse 2] Little me sittin’ at your kitchen, just listenin’ You said, “Baby, keep your faith, don’t you lose your vision” Bury you close to the hill where the lilies all stand When it’s my time, hope you reach for my hand I done watched too many fade into the night Porch light flicker like it’s losin’ the fight But we children marchin’, hearts beatin’ strong Singin’ your songs as we try to carry on World all up in my face, pullin’ for the fast life But I chose the simple road, prayin’ through the bad nights Walk slow, roll, through the hurt and the heaven Bring flowers to your stone, talk to you ’round eleven Passin’ the faith to the next in line Hold it down for the fam, one day at a time I can hear the angels callin’, “Come on home, child” Where your love lives on and your laughter’s still wild [Chorus] See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely (no you won’t) See you on the highway to home, home, home So you won’t be lonely And Grandpa, even though you’re gone, gone, gone You still got love from me, me, me My people, just rest your soul, soul, soul We’ll meet you on the highway... [Verse 3] I don’t wanna cry, but when the tears come I hear that gospel in my chest like a drum Of the days we laughed and danced in your arms Reachin’ for those summer nights on the farm We been through the moves, the losses, the gains The holidays and the pain, still remain Thank you Lord for their breath, for their gentle song For the way they held me when the world felt wrong For all my kin sittin’ front row in spirit I feel you hummin’ along every time I hear it One day we’ll all link up, no more goodbyes Just eternal sunshine in them mercy-filled skies [Outro] See you on the highway to home... so you won’t be lonely Highway to home... rest your souls We’ll meet you there... Grandma... Grandpa... I’m comin’ home... comin’ home... May you rest in peace... rest in peace...
