(ahhhh) Dust on the windshield,
tail lights fading slow
Old main street fading in the rearview glow
Porch lights flicker like they always did
Stories in the gravel where our footsteps lived
Every mile pulls a little piece away
But the heart keeps circling back to yesterday
Home is the road that still knows my name
Carrying the weight of the years just the same
Small town lights in the rearview shine
Like old friends waving from another time (yeah)
Letters in the drawer
never sent away
Names on the water tower still the same
Trains roll through like they used to do
Taking pieces of me and bringing pieces too
Home is the road that still knows my name
Carrying the weight of the years just the same
Small town lights in the rearview shine
Like old friends waving from another time (yeah)
Time keeps moving but the roots run deep
What we leave behind is what we keep
Home is the road that still knows my name
Carrying the weight with a steadier frame
Small town lights in the rearview shine
Now they guide me forward down the line (ohhh)
