Lyrics The Swellers

The Swellers

The Way Back Home

I've been looking through the glass

I can barely see, its too fogged up

Between the trees, the cold has taken all the leaves

Soon I'll watch another branch fall off

Would you believe I'm not just killing time?

I've got a lot of things to do, yeah

We won't stay here too long, but well be here again

And don't forget, we know the way back home

We won't stay here too long, but well be here again

I've been slipping through the cracks

When I show up without my bed, they'll have my back

I'll keep warm in the mitten state

I got more brothers across the lake

And the Chicago city water helps me sing

Home is where the hardest goodbyes are

My heart is in everywhere I've been

We won't stay here too long, but well be here again

And don't forget, we know the way back home

We won't stay here too long, but well be here again

Thank you my friends, you have been far too kind

When we set sail, we are not leaving you behind

I'm not leaving this behind
