Back Home Songtext
von Owl City

I′m saying goodbye to the skyline
Hello to the sweet pines
Gonna see you later street lights
I'm headed back to tree lines
To free time and starry nights
To bonfires and fireflies

Pack your bags it′s time to go
Cause we got brighter lights back home
I've got achin' feet
From walkin′ over miles of concrete
And I can′t wait to dream
But the city, you know she won't go to sleep

So I′m sayin'
Goodbye to the skyline
Hello to the sweet pines
Gonna see you later street lights
I′m headed back to tree lines
To free time and starry nights
To bonfires and fireflies


Pack your bags it's time to go
Cause we got brighter lights back home
Yeah, we got brighter lights
Back home there′s a girl named Mary Lou
A diner off the highway with a corner booth
And every gravel road is a trip down memory lane
And back home, where the corn grows ten feet tall

Every year's measured on the pantry wall
The willow trees are wavin' ′til we come back home again
Oh I′m sayin' goodbye to the skyline
Hello to the sweet pines
Gonna see you later street lights
I′m headed back to tree lines
To free time and starry nights
To bonfires and fireflies

Pack your bags it's time to go
Pack your bags it′s time to go
I'm sayin′ goodbye to the skyline
Hello to the sweet pines
Gonna see you later street lights

I'm headed back to tree lines
To free time and starry nights
To bonfires and fireflies
Pack your bags it's time to go
Pack your bags it′s time to go
Cause we got brighter lights back home
