To the Heartland Lyrics

Pack my bag for the long road home

Out where the wind whispers and roams

Dusty trails and the morning dew

Findin' all the things I thought I knew

Mountains fade in the rearview glass

Fields of gold as the minutes pass

River bends and the open sky

Chasin' dreams I left behind

To the heartland

Where the oak trees stand

Simple life

Just a workin' man

Down those dirt roads

Where the wild grass sways

Lost and found in these country ways

Songs of old in the twilight hum

Faint echoes of where I'm from

Cattle low and the rooster's cry

Tells tales of youth gone by

Train whistle blows at the crack of dawn

Whispers secrets of those who've gone

Memories tied to an old hay bale

Living stories in the land I hail

Under stars that glitter clear

Findin' solace

Findin' cheer

Through the valleys

Over the plains

Heartland's call

Where peace remains
