Lyrics
Homesick
Seventeen and an open road
I need a place to spread my wings
This dusty town is all I know
I need someplace else to be
When I close my eyes.
It's right in front of me
I've seen it in a dream
The bluest skies I've ever seen
The sweetest smell was in the breeze
It feels like home, its like a long lost friend
I can relax and I can breathe
I'm free to be who I wanna be.
When I get there, I'll never leave again
I'm homesick for a place I've never been
The world keeps spinning round.
Where it stops nobody knows
There's a place I think about
Where I can rest my weary soul
It's just ahead right in front of me
When I close my eyes I can almost see
The bluest skies I've ever seen
The sweetest smell is in the breeze
Feels like home, it's like a long lost friend.
I can relax and I can breathe
Free to be who I wanna be
When I find it, I'll never leave again
I'm homesick for a place I've never been
It took a while to know what I lost
I've searched but I've never found
A better place than I already got
Back home in my hometown
The bluest skies I've ever seen
The sweetest smell is in the breeze
Feels like home like a long lost friend
I can relax and I can breathe
I'm free to be who I wanna be
When I get back home, I'll never leave again
I'm homesick for the place
I'm homesick for the place I've always been
