Lyrics

I just left the station, headed home to lay my head
But I'm sitting at this stoplight, it just keeps burning red
I gave it all, I did my best, for the last three days I got nothing left

Well I’m homeward bound getting back to my wife
Back to my kids and back to my life
Homeward bound make the light turn green
You don’t know what it means till you've been where I've been
and you’ve seen what I have seen
Make the light turn green

I've seen a little baby coming into this life body of an old man too cold last night
Fire in a bedroom boy shot dead trickle of crimson where he bled
Sometimes life is such a mess and that’s why I can’t rest

Till I’m homeward bound getting back to my wife
Back to my kids and back to my life
Homeward bound make the light turn green
You don’t know what it means till you've been where I've been
and you’ve seen what I have seen
Make the light turn green

I get a text from my daughter call from my son he says
Dad be safe and come home soon
Cause we miss you when you’re gone. Lord I miss them when I'm gone

Well I’m homeward bound getting back to my wife
Back to my kids and back to my life
Homeward bound make the light turn green
You don’t know what it means till you've been where I've been
and you’ve seen what I have seen

I’m homeward bound where I love my dog
I can water my plants in my backyard
Homeward bound make the light turn green
You don’t know what it means till you've been where I've been
and you’ve seen what I have seen
