Going Back

Driving down a road that leads in from the east
Wondering what they'll make of his reappearance
Shields his eyes from the glare of the sun
Turns down a track that leads him along

27 years since he left his valley home
Travellin' out west to make his mark alone
Does it really matter what he's seen or what he's done
If he'd never left this place who knows what he'd become

He's going back to where it all began
Once a boy, now a man
Crossed some lines in the sand
He's going back to where it all began

He might be a troubadour arriving with a song
He might be a joker just stringing you along
He's got a smile that can warm you to your soul
But he can stare you down, chill you to your bones

He's going back to where it all began
Once a boy, now a man
Crossed some lines in the sand
He's going back to where it all began

Stops on the hill and looks over the rise
Sees the farmhouse down by the creek and the smoke from the fire
Bows his head and draws a deep breath
Slips the car back into gear, hopes for the best

Going back to where it all began
Once a boy, now a man
Crossed some lines in the sand
He's going back to where it all began
