"Finding My Way Back Home"

There aren't enough hours in a day, or months in a year to possibly right all of the wrongs you have made in your life.  There comes a point in your life when you reach a point that you have this realization that nothing you could do can change the past.  With that said, if you knew the end, would you want to experience all of the 'in-betweens'?  Many would answer no to this question, but I would answer yes.  I have seen many ends but I have had more than my share of struggles.  However, sometimes you want to go back.  You want to experience something that you remember.  You want to go back to the time of your childhood innocence.  Sometimes, you need to go home


It's too easy to let this crazy world get the best of you.  Sometimes, we all need to rediscover our roots. 


I think this song is so underrated.  If promoted properly, Lee Ann could've had a humongous hit on her hands.  This song has summertime written all over it.  PLUS, this song has some serious substance.  Come on, on my best day...how hard is it to write a catchy UPTEMPO that actually says something than 'let's be yours again.'  Like come on, this has hit written all over it.  Nashville politics, you failed us, A+.

Song: "Finding My Way Back Home"


I've been hurryin', I've been worryin'. 
I've been runnin' against the wind. 
I've been bettin' my soul on a long shot roll, 
That a good man never wins. 

I've been tossin', and I've been turnin'. 
I've been burnin' it at both ends. 
I've been seein' myself in the rear view, 
And I don't like where I've been...

So I'm takin' my time... 
Holdin' and hopin' and drivin' 
And dreamin' and lovin' every minute of it. 
Just enjoyin' the ride... 
Slowly and soulfully feeling the wheels unwind. 
Finding my way back home..

I've been toolin' along the two lane. 
I got off of the interstate. 
I've been goin' too fast, 
I got off of the gas. 
I've been learnin' the charm of the brake. 

I've been rollin' down all the windows 
And lettin' the world rush in. 
The smell of the grass and the fields that I pass 
And the sun dance on my skin. 

So I'm takin' my time... 
Holdin' and hopin' and drivin' 
And dreamin' and lovin' every minute of it. 
Just enjoyin' the ride... 
Slowly and soulfully feeling the wheels unwind. 
Finding my way back... 

I'm takin' my time... 
Holdin' and hopin' and drivin' 
And dreamin' and lovin' every minute of it... 

I'm takin' my time... 
Holdin' and hopin' and drivin' 
And dreamin' and lovin' every minute of it. 
Just enjoyin' the ride... 
Slowly and soulfully feeling the wheels unwind. 
Slowly and soulfully feeling the wheels unwind. 
Finding my way... back... home... 
I'm finding my way back home...
