Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Coffee in a paper cup Logbook ink all smudged up Same old station Same old dust on my boots Name tag girl says "drive safe Hon" Sun's just thinkin’ ’bout comin’ on I roll out Chasing that pale orange hue [Chorus] I'm almost home I can see that porch light in my mind Her bare feet dancin’ in the driveway Kids runnin’ down the gravel line Been gone all week Every mile’s been heavy on my bones But that sunrise on my windshield Says I'm almost home [Verse 2] White lines like a river bend Radio talkin’ like an old best friend Telling stories while the dark thins out That first streak of yellow sky Hits this chrome and hits my eyes Wipes the worry and the weariness down [Chorus] I'm almost home I can see that porch light in my mind Her bare feet dancin’ in the driveway Kids runnin’ down the gravel line Been gone all week Every mile’s been heavy on my bones But that sunrise on my windshield Says I'm almost home [Bridge] All those nights at truck stop tables Counting tips and counting days Every foggy mountain Every border Leads me back to that one place (yeah) [Chorus] I'm almost home I can see that porch light in my mind Her bare feet dancin’ in the driveway Kids runnin’ down the gravel line Been gone all week But this road is finally turning to our road And this sunrise on my windshield Means I'm finally home

Warm heartland country rock, mid-tempo groove. Male vocals with a road-worn intimacy, brushed snares and steady kick under twangy electric and acoustic guitars. Verses ride low and restrained; chorus opens with big open chords, stacked harmonies, and a singalong hook. Subtle organ pad in the bridge, then a dynamic lift into the final chorus.
