[Verse 1]
Keys in the bowl
Boots by the door
One last look
At the old hardwood floor
Mama said, “Girl
You can take the road”
So I packed my name
In a worn-out coat
[Pre-Chorus]
Got a one-way dream
And a carry-on
Heartbeat loud
Till the jet moves on
[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
Across the foam
Take me home, take me home
To my kinfolk’s stone
I’m going back
Where the green fields roll
Take me home, take me home
To the place I know
[Verse 2]
Hopped in the car
With the radio low
Window cracked
And my goodbye slow
Past the county lines
Past the last red barn
Chasing a map
In my granddad’s heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Got my heels in hand
And my eyes on the gate
Every mile feels small
When the old roots wait
[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
Across the foam
Take me home, take me home
To my kinfolk’s stone
I’m going back
Where the green fields roll
Take me home, take me home
To the place I know
[Bridge]
I can hear them calling
From the other side
Names I never knew
Still feel right
Salt in the air
On a windmill hill
I was born from here
And I know it still
[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
Across the foam
Take me home, take me home
To my kinfolk’s stone
I’m going back
Where the green fields roll
Take me home, take me home
To the place I know
[Outro]
Home, home
I’m coming home
Home, home
Where I belong
[Irish whistle]
