Lyrics
I was living far away from home
Tryin' to figure life out on my own
And forget the years I fought with my old man
Putting miles between all him and me
Used to talk about, and disagree
And my dreams I thought he'd never understand.
So I popped the clutch and headed west
Found a sweetheart, we had lots of kids
Got a job and made more money than we spent.
But the longer that I stayed away
Made it harder to go back again
Try to fix things, maybe try to make amends.
Then the phone starts ringin' Sunday night
So I picked it up and walked outside
I remember every word my momma said:
You better get home
They've started to gather
This cross that you bear
Just doesn't matter, and
And you've missed so much
It's time to let it go.
We'll share a few tears
You'll hear some laughter.
But try to be quick
Cause time moves faster.
Years of being right have left you all alone, so
you'd
Better get home.
As I dropped the phone and looked around
All the walls I built came tumblin' down
When I heard his days were coming to an end.
So I ran inside and packed my bag
Realized that time's not on my side
But if I leave now I can get back home again.
If I held his hand, and stroked his cheek
I could clear the air, and bring him peace
Or we could just sit there, together, and so I....
Better get home
They've started to gather
This cross that I bear
Just doesn't matter, and
I've missed so much
It's time to let it go.
We'll share a few tears
You'll hear some laughter.
I'll try to be quick
But time moves faster.
Years of being right have left me all alone.
So I better get home.
Better Get Home
I Better Get Home
Better Get Home.
If I held his hand, and stroked his cheek
I could clear the air, maybe bring him peace
Or we could just sit there, together, and so I'll . . .
Share a few tears
And hear some laughter.
I'll try to be quick
But time moves faster.
Years of being right have left me all alone, so I
Better get home.
