Back in Bristol

It was 10 years ago
When I first left my home
In the hills of old Bristol
I was born

I've played cards in Denver
Run out of money in Mexico
Walked for miles
'Til my boot soles were worn

Back in Bristol
The leaves change to yellow and gold
The sun sparkles low in the sky
Back in Bristol
The memories of tales that were told
A glimmer of hope in your eye

From Portland to Portland
The tires roll along
With 2000 miles left to go
I think when I get there I'll write you a song
One that you feel like you know

Back in Bristol
The leaves change to yellow and gold
The sun sparkles low in the sky
Back in Bristol
The memories of tales that were told
A glimmer of hope in your eye

The difference between me and you
Is I got more traveling to do

It was 10 years ago
When I first left my home
In the hills of old Bristol
I was born

I've played cards in Denver
Run out of money in Mexico
Walked for miles
Til my boot soles were worn

Back in Bristol
The leaves change to yellow and gold
The sun sparkles low in the sky
Back in Bristol
The memories of tales that were told
A glimmer of hope in your eye

Back in Bristol
The hillsides are covered with snow
The geese flying high up above
Back in Bristol
The road now is calling me to go
'Til next time, Bristol my love
