I’m hoping up hoping in I could be home right now
The feel of the breeze the smell of the trees, my pride
I’m hoping, I’m hoping that I could be home right now
Right to you

I hear the calling out
I hear you callin' out
I hear you callin' out

I hear you callin' out

Oh

I’m wishin', I'm wishin' that I could be home right now
Around to you is just ..sleep right out
But is something that’s making me in
Being out
I’m wishin', i’m wishin' that I could be home right now
Right to nothing to do, trusting in you
I can the world spinnin' around
Making the far into the crowd
Oh I’m hoping, I’m hoping that I could be home right now
Right out to you

I hear the calling out
I hear you callin' out
I hear you callin' out
I hear you callin' out

I’m wishin', I’m wishin' that I could be home right now
Around to you

Laying into the evening
I’m sahking guitar ? I’m willing on you

I’m wishin, I'm wishin' that I could be home right now
? something ?
Oh I'm wishin', I'm wishin' that I could be home right now
Around to you

I hear the calling out
I hear you callin' out
I hear you callin' out
I hear you callin' out

Oh I'm wishin', I'm wishin' that I could be home right on to you
