I’m in the land of my birth
I know these trees and I know this earth
I know these streets and grass and parks
I drive around til it gets dark

I threw some rocks into the brook
Read the words in the holy book
Then I drove 3 hours far
And drove some more til it got dark

Every blade of grass every gas station
Every inch holds a memory
But I feel like an alien
In a dream

I looked at places long forgot
Snapping pictures in the parking lot
Felt a pang and I felt a spark
I drove around til it got dark

Sure there’s a lot that’s changed
Signs and people rearranged
But the body knows where you are
I drove and drove til it got dark

Finally after a long
Time I had to come write this song
So I picked up my guitar
Doing my song long after dark
