Lonestar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Weary traveller, somethin' missin' inside
Always lookin' for a reason to turn around
Desperate for a little peace of mind
Just a little piece of what I left behind
Well, I found it now: you're like coming home
You're like a Sunday mornin', pleasin' my eyes
That peaceful easy feelin' at the end of a long, long road
You're like coming home
You're like coming home, all right
Go 'head and let your hair fall down
This wanderlust--it's gone now
I'm here in your arms; I'm safe from the road again
These are the days that can't be erased
Baby, there isn't a better place
You're like heaven
You're like coming home
You're like a Sunday mornin', pleasin' my eyes
You're a midsummer's dream under a star-soaked sky
That peaceful easy feelin' at the end of a long, long road
You're like coming home
You're that innocence, that serenity
That long-lost part of me
You're like a Sunday mornin', pleasin' my eyes
A midsummer's dream under a star-soaked sky
That peaceful easy feelin' at the end of a long, long road
You're like a Sunday mornin', pleasin' my eyes
You're a midsummer's dream under a star-soaked sky
That peaceful easy feelin' at the end of a long, long road
You're like coming home, yeah
You're like coming home
Baby, like coming home;
You're like coming home

The original video for this song is awesome. That sure one beautiful 379 Peterbuilt. Wish that video was on you tube.

The whole reason I put this song on YouTube in the first place was because it was nowhere to be found. I don't have the music video, but you would think the morons clicking the dislike button could at least try to be more grateful? If I happened to purchase a song that isn't on YouTube, I'm more likely to post it just because I know it's going to get views. Just like this video here.

+IllBePlayin Sadly, I have no control over that. I don't know how that gets determined. I experience the same problems with Japanese videos every now and then so I understand the issue there. I would advise one of 2 things. Try a URL for a different country, or use an under the table method to view or listen to this video. I can personally think of 2 ways to do so, but I wouldn't have been able to do either if it wasn't for my ex/best friend. I wish you luck.
