Lyrics
Massachusetts
I’ve traveled all the highways these past twenty years
Never stayed long in one place, chasing a career
The muse, she leads me blindly following the wind
But now I’m going back to find myself again
I’m going home to Massachusetts, where my heart has always been
From the shoreline to the mountains, you’re an old and faithful friend
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, my roots run long, my roots run deep
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, you are my home and where I long to be
The grass ain’t always greener on the other side
You don’t see the price that’s paid for that kind of life
This road it can be endless when you’ve lost your way
but now I’m going back, I’m coming home to stay
I’m going home to Massachusetts, where my heart has always been
From the shoreline to the mountains, you’re an old and faithful friend
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, my roots run long, my roots run deep
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, you are my home and where I long to be
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, my roots run long, my roots run deep
Oh, oh, oh, Massachusetts, you are my home and where I long to be
You are my home and where I long to be
