::: Nina Nesbitt - I'm Coming Home :::

 

I’m driving down these old dirt roads

I see the hills up on the right

White grass, artificial ski slope

Im speeding by the east coast train line

I’ve got a friend talking on the phone

He said he’d help me pass the time

I’m where the humour is dry as a bone

but it rains here every night

 

To see the faces that I know

Been away for way too long,

 

Where the trees always growin’

Wanna see where time has gone,

 

So put the kettle on the stove

Leave a light on so they know I’m coming home

 

I’ve got the wind in my sails

I’ve got the red in my cheeks

Cause I’ve been running from this place

Ever since seventeen

 

Cobbled streets

Evergreens

Castles and

housing schemes

That whisky taste

Out till late

See that man

He’s shitfaced

 

To see the faces that I know

Been away for way too long

 

So put the kettle on the stove

Leave a light on so they know

I’m coming home

 

Flashback I’m seventeen

in the passenger seat

You roll the windows down

808s and heartbreak plays

Even in this small town

We still had the biggest dreams

I always wanted something more

I always wanted to be seen

Still got that northern blood

I’ve still got a sharp edged tongue

I hold it like a sword

So everyone knows where I’m from

You take for granted all the things

That one day will be gone

I should’ve for held on for dear life

When I was young

I walk through the trees

I see the green

I see the reservoir

I see the nights

I see the lights

I see my family fall apart

I know the leaving

know the feelings

Know the seasons change

Things are different now

But I still feel the same

 

I’ve been around I’ve seen it all

There’s nowhere else I’d rather go

So won’t you let them know

I’m coming home
