Home Lyrics

I've got these letters tatooed to my arm,
that remind me each second of where I come from,
and the long hard road. to guide me back home.

Back to my mama who raised me up right,
and back to my lady I held every night.
It's a long hard road trying get back home.

I've been gone now, for to long

I'm not trying to stop a hurricane.
I'm not trying to shake the ground below.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.

I'm not trying to part the ocean waves.
I'm not trying to over throw the throne.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.
I'm just trying to get home.

I've got this image engraved in my mind
of a life that I had in a whole different time,
it still breaths and lives at the end of the road.
I've seen mountains and valleys through my missing days,
but I never once parted, with how you begged me to stay.
I will run down that long hard and treacherous road, to get home.

I'm not trying to stop a hurricane.
I'm not trying to shake the ground below.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.

I'm not trying to part the ocean waves.
I'm not trying to over throw the throne.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.
I'm just trying to get home.

I've been gone for so long, but my heart it carries on, as it pounds like a drum.
I've been gone for so long, but my heart it carries on.
I won't give up.

I'm not trying to stop a hurricane.
I'm not trying to shake the ground below.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.

I'm not trying to part the ocean waves.
I'm not trying to over throw the throne.
I'm just trying to find a way to make it back home.
I'm just trying to get home.

Zachary Barnett (vocals), James Adam Shelley (guitar/banjo), Matt Sanchez (drums), and Dave Rublin (bass) started the band "American Authors" Boston, Massachusetts in 2012, but soon moved to Brooklyn, New York. As their band name suggests, this quartet writes stories through their music to share their struggles, high and lows, and changes.

Soon after forming, American Authors caught the attention of Island Records, which signed the band to a record deal. Their debut album "Oh, What a Life" was released on Mar 04, 2014.
