Take Me Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I left my jacket on the kitchen chair And a note beneath the keys The train pulled out through fields of winter wheat With your photograph beside me [Pre-Chorus] Every mile has a different name But none of them sound like you [Chorus] Take me home, take me home Past the river and the county line Where the porch light burns by the old oak tree And your hand still fits in mine Take me home, take me home I have carried this heart too far If you leave the front door open tonight I'll follow the road by the stars [Verse 2] I learned the shape of unfamiliar rooms And the taste of borrowed time But your Sunday coffee, cinnamon and rain Still comes back to me at night [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a grand parade Just a place where I can tell the truth [Chorus] Take me home, take me home Past the river and the county line Where the porch light burns by the old oak tree And your hand still fits in mine Take me home, take me home I have carried this heart too far If you leave the front door open tonight I'll follow the road by the stars [Bridge] When the morning finds me at your gate I won't ask what went wrong I'll set my bags beside the steps And stay where I belong [Final Chorus] Take me home, take me home Past the river and the county line Where the porch light burns by the old oak tree And your hand still fits in mine Take me home, take me home No more running through the dark If you leave the front door open tonight I'll follow the road by the stars [Outro] Take me home I'm already on my way
