about

A Country Soul ballad about heading back to the old family home after being away for a long, long time.

lyrics

Going Home
Music & Lyrics by Tim Hulsman © 2015

Well that old front gate still has a squeaky hinge
A note to my self “I’d better fix that while I’m here”
And those four front steps, they seem smaller now
But they’re twice as hard to climb
I’m thinking about just turning around
Cos I’m burning up inside

And I hope that you don’t mind……………
Mind me stopping by.

Well I knock on that front door instead of ringing on your bell
You know that secret knock that you taught me,
That the whole world knows so well.
And as I stand here on your porch with the sunlight streaming through
I realise I probably should have called but now…
What am I to do?

I just hope that you don’t mind……………
Mind me passing through

Tell me why do I feel so compelled to make you understand
(Understand)
That I am no longer your boy and I sure ain’t your man?
(I’m not your man)
I know that you’ve heard but I want for your own eyes to see
(Why Can’t you see?)
That I will survive and I’ll be all of the man I should be
(All I should be)
And that’s no thanks to you.
That’s no thanks to you.

(Guitar solo)

Well finally there’s a noise behind the door
Just a little shuffle and a creaking of the floors boards
And as that front door opens wide and you adjust your eyes
This moment I’ve been waiting so long for has finally arrived

And I hope that you’ll forgive me………………
The tears in my eyes
Cos there’s no mistaking…………………
That you’ve got my old Mother’s eyes.
