Homecoming Blues

from DEAD ROSES (Album) by Garrington T Jones

/

about

There is a point when the lonely life that you live on the road becomes all too much and you yearn to be back in the comforts of home and close to one you love. After all they say that home is where the heart is.
But home is also the place where you can share your dreams with loved ones and together, create a wanderlust, stronger than you have ever had before! Yes; home is where new adventures begin.

lyrics

Homecoming Blues

I’m putting on my old shoes,
And packing up my bag,
Time I was heading on my way.
I’ll be creepin’ through the back door,
As quiet as a mouse,
Because home is where I want to stay.

The city’s not the place where I belong,
I’m tiring of her sad old song.
It’s time for adventures,
Time for somewhere new,
I’ve been here for much too long.

I’m putting on my old coat,
And pulling on my hat,
Travelling is what I have to do.
I’m missing my old tom cat,
And my comfy bed,
And sure as hell, I miss you.

No doubt in my mind where I belong,
And you know I could never do you wrong.
I’m looking for adventure,
Time for pastures new,
Another week from you is just too long.

I’m putting on my old gloves,
Luggage in the cab,
So long to this sad old city view.
Back to my old house,
The place that I call home,
It’s the place where I’ll find you.
Yeah, the place where I’ll find you.
And sure as hell, I miss you.
