From the recording Beautiful Illusion
Lyrics
I'm Just Missin' Home
We got an ole place out by the lake,
Where the sunset streaks the sky,
A little lake house with a front porch,
Where the memories never die (will always make me cry)
The firepit’s cracklin' and the whiskey’s pourin', We’re laughin’
as the stars come to light,
Got the best view in the county,
The evening feels so right.
dont mind the tears in my eyes
im just missin' home
Yeah, we’re sippin’ on that whiskey, watchin’ the time stop,
Family all together, with the lake as our back drop,
Gathered ‘round the firepit, enjoying another beautiful day
remembering the good ole days, where we all used to play
Mama’s cookin' up a feast now, daddy's behind the bar
Grandma’s stories fill the air,
Papa’s playin’ on the old guitar,
We all sing along, I say a little prayer
Kids are runnin’ wild and free,
This makes me remember where I long to be
Chasin' fireflies all night,
And slow dancing in the moonlight
When the world gets heavy and the road gets long,
I’ll come back to this place where I belong.
The laughter and the comfort, the warmth of kin,
In that lake house by the sunset, I’ll always find my way back again
dont mind the tears in my eyes
im just missin' home
[guitar solo]
Yeah, we’re sippin’ on that whiskey, watchin’ the time stop,
Family all together, with the lake as our back drop,
Gathered ‘round the firepit, enjoying another beautiful day
remembering the good ole days, where we all used to play
So here’s to that lake house and the life we’ve made,
To sunsets and the firepit, where the memories never fade
With whiskey in our glasses and family by our side,
In this sweet retreat of ours, we’ll forever reside.
