My Way Home - Yoan

It’s where the mountains are high

And the water is clear

The people are proud of where they’ve been

I heard that an old friend passed away last year

I guess God was missing him

I should head back there I swear to myself I will

I miss the songs of the whip-poor-will

It’s been a long time

I haven’t seen my mother on the hill

We buried her there so she can feel the wind

I haven’t heard from my dad

He must be writing songs about life

Asking why death took his wife

Last week Grandma called,

Grandpa’s got cancer and we can’t do

Nothing at all

While I’m standing here singing this song

Tears’ve been cried, my family’s dyin'

And I ain’t there to say goodbye

Oh tonight, I’m on my way home

Oh tonight, I’m on my way home
