Lyrics

[Verse]
The boots are dusted, the gear laid down,
A soldier's heart in a quiet town.
The weight I carried, it starts to ease,
With every rustle of these hometown trees.

[Verse]
Mama’s porch light, it’s always the same,
Guiding me home through the fog and the rain.
Daddy’s old truck still parked in the yard,
The miles I’ve gone, they don’t feel so far.

[Chorus]
I’m coming back home where the fields don't change,
Where the gravel roads still know my name.
The war’s behind, the love’s ahead,
Here’s where I’ll rest my weary head.

[Verse]
The scars I bring, they tell their own tale,
Of fire and loss, of winds that wail.
But here in this place, I can finally mend,
Find my peace at the journey’s end.

[Bridge]
The little church steeple comes into view,
The hymn I remember feels warm and true.
A soldier’s heart beats loud and clear,
For family, for love, for all that’s here.

[Chorus]
I’m coming back home where the fields don't change,
Where the gravel roads still know my name.
The war’s behind, the love’s ahead,
Here’s where I’ll rest my weary head.
