lyrics

Moving
All signs pointed north
Last night, I got caught in a Georgia rainstorm
Cold front moved in
In the morning, the sun came out again
It’s a beautiful day
It’s a perfect day

But I know where I’ve got to go
And I see the path in front of me
And it all makes sense when you’re about to leave
And you wonder why it took so long to realize

Driving
All roads headed home
I keep dialing, wanting him to pick up the phone
And tell those stories that used to go on and on and on and on
But his words are short
‘Cause his mind is hurt

So I know where I’ve got to go
And I see the path under my feet
And it all makes sense when you’re about to leave
And you wonder why it took so damn long to realize

The babies in the morning
Tyanna is still yawning
My daddy is sleeping in again
My baby sister awakes to go to work again

So I know where I want to go
And I see the path in front of me
And I owe so much to my family
And I wonder why it took me so damn long to realize

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
Is home
