Home take me home
Home, take me home
West wind blowin', take me home
Home, take me home
The wheels are rollin', take me home

Life's been hard for a man like me
I started out with nothin'
Still I struggle to hold on to somethin'

Left home when I was twelve
Thought I could do better on my own
Mom stood crying on the porch, waving towards my dusty back as I walked
As I walked

I must say, I did pretty good at first
Gained profit from a penny made of rust
I rambled and I gambled, till I stumbled and crumbled
I made a mess of me and now I'm here

I've walked across a dessert
I've climbed the highest mountains
And felt a lions strength, as it fights to kill it's appetite
Just to make me feel alive
I have made love to women I don't know
And I once gunned a man
With a shotgun from my waist 'cause I was drunk

I'm a loser, I'm a failure
A liar, a betrayer
I wonder why I'm still here on the ground

Maybe someone's watching over me
Perhaps the God who made the heavens and the sea
I don't know, but this I know, there's something in me longing for
Something more, something more

Home, take me home
I hope you forgive me, take me home
Home, take me home
God, if you're listening, take me home

Home, take me home
I'm so tired, take me home
Home, take me home
I'm so sorry, take me home

I set my mind on things at home
I set my mind on things at home and above
I set my mind on things at home
I set my mind on those I love
I set my mind on those I miss
I set my mind on those I love
I set my mind on things above
I set my mind on things at home
