[Intro] [Verse] Eighteen and the tires were spinning fast Left a cloud of dust on the gravel path I wanted neon lights and city glass Told the porch swing it wouldn't last But those painted slats are peeling now And I'm back behind the family plow [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road was long and wide But it led me back inside To the place I tried to hide [Chorus] It’s the chipped ceramic coffee mugs And the way the porch floor hugs Every step I take back through the door I don't need the city anymore It’s the peach pie on a paper plate Leaning on the garden gate Feels like home, fits just right Like a well-worn flannel in the night [Post-Chorus] Yeah, it fits just right In the golden light Home tonight [Verse] Saturday morning at the market stall Saw you standing there, standing tall High school jacket, same old grin Asking me where the hell I’ve been We laughed about the broken clock And the way the old dogs always walk Down the center of Main Street lane Like they own the sun and the rain [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road was long and wide But it led me back inside To the place I tried to hide [Chorus] It’s the chipped ceramic coffee mugs And the way the porch floor hugs Every step I take back through the door I don't need the city anymore It’s the peach pie on a paper plate Leaning on the garden gate Feels like home, fits just right Like a well-worn flannel in the night [Bridge] Crickets humming a familiar tune Underneath a big July moon I used to hate the quiet sound Now it’s the sweetest thing I’ve found The shadows stretch across the lawn I’m right where I belong [Chorus] It’s the chipped ceramic coffee mugs And the way the porch floor hugs Every step I take back through the door I don't need the city anymore It’s the peach pie on a paper plate Leaning on the garden gate Feels like home, fits just right Like a well-worn flannel in the night [Post-Chorus] Yeah, it fits just right In the golden light Home tonight [Outro]
