lyrics

Sitting in a diner
On Seventh Avenue
Thinking 'bout the highway
And all that I've been through
I don't mind the wandering
But if I have to roam
I only hope I wind up
Closer to home

It's easy to be bitter
And feel so uninspired
When your bags are heavy
And your legs are tired
And your head is buzzing
Just like a honeycomb
Wondering if you'll ever be
Closer to home

Where the golden sunset
Slips into the sea
And gentle breezes carry
The scent of rosemary
I will cast my burden
To the roiling foam
When I lay my head down
Closer to home
