I watched you pack your bags
tonight
Underneath the kitchen light
You said you need to find your way
I had too much I
couldn’t say
I know you want to hold my hand
Dad, I hope you understand
I don’t know what I’m gonna find
But I need a chance to make it mine
Go on and find your open road
You’ve got a place here,
that won’t change
I won’t ask you to turn around
But I’ll be glad to see you pull in again
I taught you how to turn a wrench
You stayed till we could start that truck
I knew you’d drive it out someday
My hands are shaking on the wheel
I thought I’d be more sure by now
I’m not leaving you behind
I’m just scared to say goodbye
Go on and find your open road
You’ve got a place here,
that won’t change
I won’t ask you to turn around
But I’ll be glad to see you pull in again
Leave the light on like you do
I’ll find my way back home to you
