歌词

[Intro]
[Verse]
Sun sinks low on 81
Work is finally done
Dusty boots on red clay
Been away too many days
Diner sign still flickers red
Just like the old man said
[Pre-Chorus]
The road is a long wire
Tangled in a cold desire
But the shadows start to bend
Leading to the journey's end
[Chorus]
I’m back on the mending line
Running out of highway time
Old Blue’s waiting on the porch
Holding up a steady torch
There’s a comfort in the dust
In the things that never rust
I’m finally home
Where I belong
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah I'm finally home
Where I belong
[Verse]
Bell rings at the feed store
Creaking on the pine floor
She’s stacking bags of grain
Like she never felt the rain
Blue eyes meet my tired face
Slowing down the frantic pace
[Pre-Chorus]
I remember every fence post
Every ghost I loved the most
The wire’s pulled so true
Drawing me back to you
[Chorus]
I’m back on the mending line
Running out of highway time
Old Blue’s waiting on the porch
Holding up a steady torch
There’s a comfort in the dust
In the things that never rust
I’m finally home
Where I belong
[Bridge]
Dad said keep the tension right
Hold the pliers good and tight
A fence is more than wood
It’s doing what you should
Fix the breaks and heal scars
Underneath these prairie stars
[Solo]
[Chorus]
I’m back on the mending line
Running out of highway time
Old Blue’s waiting on the porch
Holding up a steady torch
There’s a comfort in the dust
In the things that never rust
I’m finally home
Where I belong
[Post-Chorus]
Just a simple Oklahoma man
With a hammer in his hand
Yeah I’m finally home
Never more to roam
[Outro]
