Bonnie Raitt · Sweet Forgiveness [1977]

Traveling at night, the headlights were bright

And we'd been up many an hour

And all through my brain

Came the refrain

Of home and it's warming fire.



Chorus:

And Home

Sings me of sweet things

My life there has it's own wings

To fly over the mountains

Though I'm standing still.



The people I've seen

They come in between

The cities of tiring life

The trains come and go

But inside you know

The struggle will soon be a fight.



Chorus:

And Home

Sings me of sweet things

My life there has it's own wings

To fly over the mountains

Though I'm standing still.



Traveling at night

The headlights were bright

But soon the sun came through the trees

Around the next bend

The flowers will send

The sweet scene of home in the breeze.



Chorus:

And Home

Sings me of sweet things

My life there has it's own wings

To fly over the mountains

Though I'm standing still...
