Down The Old Road To Home
Yearning for Home: A Journey Through Longing and Memories
Lyrics
I'm thinking of you while here all alone
I am thinking about you while being alone.
I'm wishing and longing for you and for home
I am wishing and longing for you and for my home.
I'd give this whole world if I could only say
I would give up the entire world if I could express that...
I'm climbin' that old hill heading that way
I am climbing a metaphorical hill, heading towards home.
For I'm lonesome and blue for
Feeling lonely and sad because...
Some place to roam
I desire a place to wander or explore.
And I wish it could be down
Expressing a wish for that place to be...
That old road to home
On the old road leading to home.
With a troubled mind and a heart full of pain
Dealing with a troubled mind and a heart full of pain.
I've searched this whole world
I have searched the entire world...
For fortune and fame
...in pursuit of fortune and fame.
But I'm longing to be with you once again
Despite the search, I long to be with you again.
So we could go strolling down old mem'ry lane
To relive old memories together.
There's a little white house on
Describing a little white house situated...
The top of the hill
...at the top of a hill.
Not very far from an old sawmill
Near an old sawmill.
And I'd give this world if I could only say
Expressing a willingness to give up the world to say...
I'm climbing that old hill heading that way
...that I'm climbing that old hill heading home.
For I'm lonesome and blue for
Feeling lonely and sad for...
Some place to roam
...a place to roam.
And I wish it could be down
Expressing a wish for it to be on...
That old road to home
...that old road leading to home.
