Ellis Paul - Welcome Home to Maine lyrics

I took the back roads through Fisherman's Cove Tracing my way home to Maine There's color on the trees Boats out on the seas Halleluia, some things never change. There's a schooner out in Yorktown She's white as a wedding gown Breaking the crest of the waves I saw my ghost in Portland On the cobblestones a younger man Trying his best to misbehave (chorus 1) Maine, Maine, look how the years have changed me The road has rearranged me Won't you tell me who I am? (chorus 2) Maine, Maine, your rivers and back roads claim me Ah, the ocean is calling - it names me It's the voice of an old friend Welcome home to Maine It's a white-line road Through Hickory Grove A cider house with frost on the eaves There's a woman up in Camden (**I took a left for Bangor) With a bra** bed I could land in (**There's woman there I'm longing for) Makes me wonder why I'd leave (repeat chorus 2) Papa's in his wool cap Waiting on a cold snap Fixing up a Sunday feast The sheet's are on the line I'm taking back in time (**The flannel ones are mine) To when time was something I didn't need (**Mama's making up the beds we need) (repeat chorus 1) (repeat chorus 2) Welcome home to Maine, Maine, Maine (repeat)
