Back To Tennessee
Miley Cyrus · Other Songs - Miley Cyrus
I've seen all kinds of shiny things
I should be feeling like a king
But lord I don't
Great big towns so full of users
Make a million still a loser
Some may bet on you to win
Most hope you don't
Livin' wild, ain't no mercy being free
When it brings you to your knees
Can't help lying
I see the road now, I know just what I need
To find my way back to Tennessee
I was only seventeen
I left behind my beauty king
I turned my back on everything
And everyone
Rooms with lots of pretty faces
Still don't fill the empty spaces
Wanderin' where amazing grace is
There is none, no
Now I know there's no comfort in this world
God I miss that hometown boy
Wanna hold him
I'm on the road now, I know just what I need
To find my back to Tennessee
I'm going home now to Southern, its so sweet
And find my way back to Tennessee
All this time I was chasing after dreams
It was right in front of me
I was lost without him
I'm on the road no, I know just what I need
To find my way back to Tennessee
I'm coming home now to Southern, its so sweet
And find my way back to you and me
Find my way back to Tennessee
