Well I'm a thousand miles away And it feels like a thousand days Since I seen that smile, heard that laugh Felt that touch I've been needing so bad And the only way to get there fast I'm going home in my mind Cruising by them Carolina pines Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive I can already feel your hand in mine Sweet tea, porch swings, supper on the stove Everything I've been missing on the road I can't be there tonight But when I close my eyes I'm going home in my mind I'm going home in my mind When I'm fighting off the lonely Just needing you to hold me Hung up in a hotel There ain't no telling gir,l where I'm at But baby, I'm coming back Yeah, I'm coming back I'm going home in my mind Cruising by them Carolina pines Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive I can already feel your hand in mine Sweet tea, porch swings, supper on the stove Everything I've been missing on the road I can't be there tonight But when I close my eyes I'm going home in my mind, yeah I'm going home in my mind, yeah Wish I could hop on the next flight And have you by my side But this'll have to do tonight I'm going home in my mind Cruising by them Carolina pines Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive I can already feel your hand in mine Sweet tea in a porch swings, supper on the stove Everything I've been missing on the road I can't be there tonight But when I close my eyes I'm going home in my mind Yeah, I'm going home in my mind
