Keeps Me Turning Home

I miss a lot of things from home:
~DRIVING my car around and listening to the radio
~my CHURCH and church family
~my mom's HOME COOKED MEALS
~listening to my dad's funny STORIES when he gets home from work
~hearing my little brothers talk about and analyze SPORTS
~having my OWN room/bathroom
~PLACES in my hometown, such as Meijer and Little Caesars
~reading the NEWSPAPER on Sunday afternoons 
~watching the NEWS on tv in the morning


Thankfully I am home for the weekend! Hopefully I'll have the chance to enjoy some of these things!


"Usually take one last pass through town
Stop the car and touch the ground
Watch those streetlights swayin’ in the breeze
Decorated store fronts
Rusty old gas pumps
Try to fill my mind up
With somethin’ before I go
Picture postcard memories
You know they always make for good company

I don’t know no town
Like the old town
Even when the miles are many
I feel like I’m still around
Deep inside me
Like rings through an oak tree
Yeah, there something ‘bout a Sunday when I’m gone

That keeps me turning home"
David Nail, Turning Home
