Forgotten Home

Lyrics

I’m new in town
yeah I’m new here
but it feels so familiar
like I’ve already lived a life here
getting here was a journey
more like a battle sometimes
and I’m road worn and threadbare
I’ve got desert dirt on my boots and under my fingernails
and I’ve lost so much I’m not sure I can keep anything

but you feel like a forgotten home

I’ve been on the road for so long
I’m ready to sit for awhile
settle in, unpack, take my shoes off

cause you feel like a forgotten home
foreign and uncharted

so let’s just cut the bullshit
we both know what we want
and it’s this and this alone
but we’re gonna have to drive around a little
we’re gonna have to get lost a few times
until we learn the landmarks
and the landmines
until we know all the speed traps
until we know all the sharp curves
until we know the best place to pull over on the side of the road
to make out

I wanna drive all your back country roads
I wanna know where all the kids go to get stoned
I wanna swim in all the best swimming holes

I wanna find the best place to see the stars
and I wanna just lay there
I wanna just lay there and watch the earth spin

cause you feel like a forgotten home
foreign and uncharted
oh you feel like a forgotten home
foreign and uncharted
