Take Me Back Home

[Verse 1] My boots by the door Still carry your dust I eat in a break room And call it a life The phone keeps on blinking Like it owns my name Another shift, another mile Another day away [Pre-Chorus] And I keep counting The hours like change Every little promise Gets spent on the way [Chorus] Take me back home Take me back home I’m tired of running For something that never comes Take me back home Take me back home I want your front porch And a life that feels done [Verse 2] The work never closes It grows in the dark I leave with the sunrise Come back after it’s gone My shirt smells like diesel My hands smell like steel But I miss the small things That made me feel real [Pre-Chorus] And I keep counting The nights on the road Every little mile Feels heavier now [Chorus] Take me back home Take me back home I’m tired of running For something that never comes Take me back home Take me back home I want your front porch And a life that feels done [Bridge] If I could trade every dollar For one more slow Sunday I’d leave this hard road behind me And not look back one day I know what I’m chasing A name on a schedule But I miss your hands in the morning And the quiet of our room [Chorus] Take me back home Take me back home I’m tired of running For something that never comes Take me back home Take me back home I want your front porch And a life that feels done [Outro] Take me back home Take me back home Take me back home
