Back Home Again

There's a storm across the valley
The clouds are rolling in
The afternoon is heavy
On your shoulders
There's a truck out on the four lane
A mile or more away
The winding of his wheels just makes them colder

He's an hour away from riding
On your prayers up in the sky
Ten days on the road are barely gone
There's a fire softly burning
Supper's on the stove
It's the light in your eyes
That makes me warm

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
And hey, it's good to be back home again

There's all the news to tell him
How'd you spend your time?
What's the latest thing
The neighbours say?
And your mother called last Friday
A love song made her cry
You felt the baby move just yesterday

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
And hey, it's good to be back home again

Oh time that I can lay this tired old body down
Feel your fingers feather soft upon me
Kisses that I live for
And a love that lights my way
The happiness that living with you brings me

It's the sweetest thing I know of
Spending time with you
The little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burning
Supper's on the stove
It's the light in your eyes that makes me warm

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
And hey, it's good to be back home again

And hey, it's good to be back home again
