Lori McKenna - The Way Back Home lyrics

Artist: Lori McKenna

album: The Tree


Well keep a Bible by your bed even if you never read it
Like a candle in the drawer in case the lights go out
Keep your feet on solid ground but don't ever let the stars go
That way you'll always know the way back home
Keep a Twenty in your pocket
And a book for reading
If the truth hurts in your throat,
Keep mercy on your tongue
Remember forgiveness is a choice
The bitter-less are reaping
That way you'll always know the way back home
That way
When you're missin' somebody
The way you miss somebody
That you've know your whole life
You're always
Just a memory away from finding
That dirt road that leads to the front door
That made you who you are
Remember the smell of summer rising off of the driveway
After an afternoon rain, Mama callin' you in to eat
If you feel like you've been lost,
Think of the backyard you came from
That way you'll always know the way back home
That way
When you're missin' somebody
The way you miss somebody
That you've know your whole life
You're always
Just a mem'ry away from findin'
That dirt road that leads to the front door
That made you who you are
Made you who you are
In your chest there is a compass,
In your blood there is a calling
And in your head there is a vision
You called that the dream
And leaving's part of it,
If you didn't you might never know
Keep a Bible by your bed
Like headlights coming up the road
