Piney Wood Hills
Journey Home: Embracing Life in the Piney Wood Hills
Lyrics
I'm a rambler and a rover
I identify as a wanderer
and a wanderer it seems
Expressing a sense of restlessness or constant movement
I've traveled all over
Extensive travel experiences
chasing after my dreams
Pursuing aspirations and goals
But a dream should come true
A dream should be realized
and a heart should be filled
Emphasizing emotional fulfillment
and a life should be lived
A complete and fulfilling life
in the piney wood hills
In the rustic, wooded hills
I'll return to the woodlands
Expressing a desire to return to nature
I'll return to the snow
Referencing a return to colder regions
I'll return to the hills
Emphasizing a return to hills and valleys
and the valley below
The specific geographical connection to home
I'll return like a poor man
Return irrespective of wealth or status
or a king if God wills
Depending on God's will
but I'm on my way home
Currently en route home
to the piney wood hills
To the familiar piney wood hills
I was raised on a song there
Upbringing influenced by songs
I done right I done wrong there
Recognition of both right and wrong actions
and it's true I belong there
Acknowledging a sense of belonging
and it's true it's my home
Affirming the place as a true home
From ocean to ocean
Extensive travel from coast to coast
I've rambled and roamed
Continued roaming
and soon I'll return
An impending return to the piney wood home
to my piney wood home
Specifically, the rustic home in the woods
Maybe someday I'll find
A hope to find reciprocal love
someone who will
Find someone who loves the piney wood hills
love as I love my piney wood hills
Expressing deep affection for the homeland
I was raised on a song there
Reiteration of the impact of songs on upbringing
I done right I done wrong there
Acknowledging both right and wrong choices
and it's true I belong there
Reaffirmation of belonging
and it's true it's my home
Stating the truth of it being the home
I'll return to the woodlands
Repeating the desire to return to nature
I'll return to the snow
Repeating the return to colder regions
I'll return to the hills
Repeating the return to hills and valleys
and the valley below
Repeating the specific geographical connection
I'll return like a poor man
Repeating the idea of return irrespective of status
or a king if God wills
Repeating the dependence on God's will
but I'm on my way home
Reiterating the ongoing journey home
to the piney wood hills.
Final emphasis on the piney wood hills as the destination
