lyrics

Touched down early on a summer night
Followed them arrows as the building lights
Rose over the horizon like a thousand stars
The crowded I-90 and a lane of cars

Oh Oh I’m coming home
Can’t wait to feel the rumble of the Old Post Road

Took the first exit and drove through town
The streets they hummed with the windows down
A half moon settled in the far north sky
The breezes that were blowing smelled like July

Oh Oh I’m coming home
Can’t wait to feel the rumble of the Old Post Road

Headed down a couple of tight switch backs
Past broken down porches near the railroad tracks
The smell of cut lumber from the paper mill
I’ll be leaving it behind me at the top of the hill

Oh Oh I’m coming home
Can’t wait to feel the rumble of the Old Post Road

Pulled over to the shoulder and cut the gas
Like a long haul trucker on a mountain pass
Cause something unfamiliar rattled my bones
The skeleton frames of a hundred new homes

Oh Oh I’m coming home
But they blocked up the middle of the Old Post Road
