Midnight Swinging River

Lyrics

[INTRO] When the moon whispers low and the stars line the sky A heartbeat slows, a story begins to rise [VERSE 1] I packed my memories in a worn-out suitcase Footsteps echo through streets I once chased The city lights fade as I hit the highway Wind carries the promise of a brand new day [CHORUS] Home, where the river runs deep Where my heart will find its own beat Under the same sky I’ll lay my soul free Home, you’re the dream I’m chasing [VERSE 2] The road bends like a question mark in the dust Past faces fade, yet their warmth stays with us Every mile is a chapter, every turn a new rhyme I’m chasing the horizon, chasing the time [CHORUS] Home, where the river runs deep Where my heart will find its own beat Under the same sky I’ll lay my soul free Home, you’re the dream I’m chasing [BRIDGE] I hear the distant call of my childhood song Echoes of laughter where the river belongs I see the porch lights flicker in the night Guiding me back to that familiar sight [HOOK] We’re heading toward the sunrise, no turning back On this road, the future’s made of tracks With every heartbeat, I feel the pull of the past And the promise of a place that will forever last [CHORUS] Home, where the river runs deep Where my heart will find its own beat Under the same sky I’ll lay my soul free Home, you’re the dream I’m chasing [OUTRO] The road stretches beyond the horizon line But I know the ending is where I’ll find The love that waits in the quiet night Home, I’ll return to you, with all of my light
