If today was not an endless highway
If tomorrow wasn't such a crooked trail
And if tomorrow
If it wasn't such a long time
Lonesome would mean nothing to me at all

Only if my own true love was waiting
If I could hear her heart softly poundin'
And if she was only lyin' by me
I'd lie in my bed once again

There's beauty in the silver, singin' river
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky
But there's nothing in the world that can ever match the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes

You know, only, only if my little girl was waiting
If I could only hear her heart softly pounding
And if she, only she was lyin' by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again

I'm going, gonna go where the Sun keeps shining
Through the pouring rain
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes, yeah
I'm gonna hit off of the north east wind
Bank down on a summer breeze
I'm gonna treat me over the ocean like a stone

I'm going home
Going home, going home
Yeah, going home
