Kane's River - Take Me Back Home lyrics

In my mind I can see, The fence post lean And the hills roll on forever I said goodbye to the Big Sky, Hello to the city lights, Now what I wouldn't give If I could go back Oh, the big city fooled me With her charms, Now she holds me with Her steel and concrete arms I left my home, far away, But it will never leave me From up here on this highrise, I began to realize it's lonely On this ladder that I've climbed Looking down on this rat race, I can hardly keep the pace, Lately I've been dreaming of my home And how the wind gently whispers Through the trees, that old barn is covered In autumn leaves I left my home, far away, But it will never leave me Time has a way of making me see The things I once took for granted Are what matter most to me When you find yourself alone, You can see what is lost This world's in such a hurry, All the anger, fear and worry Lord, take me back home Mama called me today, Sends her love my way, Nothing ever changes in that town And daddy's looking for that gear, Still working on the old John Deere, Seems it's been broken down for years I remember holidays at home, But I've spent the last Four Christmases alone I left my family, far away, But they will never leave me Time has a way of making me see The things I once took for granted Are what matter most to me When you find yourself alone, You can see what is lost This world's in such a hurry, All the anger, fear and worry Lord take me back home This world's in such a hurry, All the anger, fear and worry Lord, take me back home
