“Chasin’ You Back Home”
Dust on the tires, sunset burnin’ low
Radio hummin’ that old backroad soul
Your name’s still ridin’ shotgun in my mind
Every mile marker says I’m runnin’ outta time
I’ve been a fool with a restless heart
Driftin’ too far, fallin’ apart
But grace showed up in the dead of night
Said “boy, turn around, go make it right,
So I’m followin’ that voice like a highway sign
Prayin’ I ain’t already crossed the line
I’m chasin’ you through every memory
Through every prayer I used to speak
Through the good times we let roll by
And the tears we couldn’t hide
I was lost, but now I see
What forever’s s’posed to be
If I make it back through all this blue
I’ll fall down, say “I love you, Donna”… and prove it true
Neon nights and a whiskey haze
Ain’t nothin’ like your Sunday praise
You were faith when I had none
A steady light, my risin’ sun
I hear your laugh in the wind tonight
Like heaven’s sayin’ “don’t give up the fight”
Every wrong road led me here
With your name on every tear
Now I’m knockin’ on mercy’s door
A better man than I was before
I’m chasin’ you through every memory
Through every prayer I used to speak
Through the good times we let roll by
And the tears we couldn’t hide
I was lost, but now I see
What forever’s s’posed to be
If I make it back through all this blue
I’ll fall down, say “I love you, Donna”… and prove it true
If God’s got a road that leads me home
I’ll walk it barefoot, I’ll walk it alone
Just to see your eyes again
And lay this broken pride to rest
Ain’t no more runnin’…
Ain’t no more lies…
I’m chasin’ you with everything in me
Through every mile and memory
Through the good times we’ll make again
With a faith that never ends
I was blind, but now I know
You’re the only road I wanna go
So I’m standin’ here, heart in view
Sayin’ “I love you, Donna”… like I always knew
Dust settles down, engine finally still…
Right where I belong… if you will…
