Home again in my heart

One in a million in a lonely town,
two hundred people trying to keep me down,
I've taken all I can, I ain't lookin' back.
small town boy in a back yard lot,
can't make a living with the luck I've got
I'm gonna leave it all, I ain't looking back.

That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young.
But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground,
And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down.
still I go home again in my heart.

My father worked hard on the railroad track
37 years cut across his back,
he gave it all he had for what he believed.
Like every other kid that came before,
I grew up believing there was something more
and I still believe, I still believe.

That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young.
But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground,
And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down.
still I go home again in my heart.

But I can still see the lightning on a warm summer night
and the rain on the roof when I close my eyes
I can still hear us laughing on the front porch in the dark.
There are days when I know that I've traveled so far
that I'll never find the road leading back to the start,
still I go home again in my heart
still I go home again in my heart
in my heart, in my heart
