Back Home Again

There's a strom across the valley 
Clouds are rollin' in
The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders

There's a truck out on the four lane a mile or more away
The whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder
He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky
And ten days on the road are barely gone

There's a fire softly burning 
Supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long-lost friend
Yes'n hey, it's good to be back home again

There's all the news to tell him how'd you spend your time?
And what's the latest thing the neighbors say?
And your mother called last Friday; 
"Sunshine" made her cry
And you felt the baby move just yesterday

And oh, the time that I can lay this tired old body down 
and feel your fingers feather-soft upon me
The kisses that I live for  
The love that lights my way
The happiness that livin' with you brings me

It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spendin' time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burning and supper on the stove
And the light in your eyes that makes me warm
