American Authors Home lyrics

I've got these letters tattooed on my arm
That remind me each second
Of where I come from
And the long, hard road
To guide me back home

Back to my mama
Who raised me up right
And back to my lady
I held every night
It's a long, hard road
trying to get home I've
been gone now for too long

I'm not trying to stop
A hurricane
I'm not trying to shake
The ground below
I'm just trying to find a way
to make it back home

I'm not trying to point
The ocean waves
I'm not trying to overthrow
The throne
I'm just trying to find a way
To make it back home
I'm just trying to get home

I've got this image
Engraved in my mind
Of a life that I had
In a whole different time
It's still breathes and lives
At the end of the rode

I've seen mountains
And valleys through
My missing days
But I never once parted
With how you begged me
To stay I will run down
The long, hard and
Treacherous rode


I'm not trying to stop
A hurricane
I'm not trying to shake
The ground below
I'm just trying to find a way
to make it back home

I'm not trying to point
The ocean waves
I'm not trying to overthrow
The throne
I'm just trying to find a way
To make it back home
I'm just trying to get home

I've been gone for so long
But my heart it carries on
As it pounce like a drum
Of my journey back home

I've been gone for so long
But my heart it carries on
I won't give up

I'm not trying to stop
A hurricane
I'm not trying to shake
The ground below
I'm just trying to find a way
to make it back home

I'm not trying to point
The ocean waves
I'm not trying to overthrow
The throne
I'm just trying to find a way
To make it back home
I'm just trying to get home
I'm just trying to get home
