Lyrics
Going Home
Howard Livingston ASCAP
Life goes by, a day at a time
The more I'm here, the more I find
The sand through the hourglass
Flows way too fast
But now I'm goin' home
I wouldn't change my life for anything
My best friends and I just chasin' dreams
The wheels on the bus go round
Through a hundred towns
But now, I'm going home
There's a moon out on the ocean that's calling me
Sittin' on my porch tonight is where I'm gonna be
I'm goin' home
We've made so many friends along the way
And our family grows each and every day
Oh what a life we live, so much love to give
But now I'm going home
There's a moon out on the ocean and it's calling me
Sittin' on my porch tonight is where I'm gonna be
I'm goin' home
Life goes by, a day at a time
The more I'm here, the more I find
The sand through the hourglass
Flows way too fast
But now I'm goin' home
Yea, now I'm goin' home
