Winter storms and cloudy skies
Whether or not they’ll break away
That’s always been a mystery to me
On these cold Carolina days

Some days I feel like caving in
Hope never seemed so distant
Scarlet and ginger leaves fall to earth
Suddenly life seems so slow

Maybe someday I will find my way
Back home to where I grew up
The streets silent, the winters cold
The trees hovering above

The sky never seemed so far
The sun settling over the hills
This is where my heart longs
This is where I belong

This is home
Not my favorite I have written but it's worth to be put up.
