lyrics

Big engine start up
Big wheels move in time
Past the fairgrounds of summer
Blinking dust from your eyes

But I had to come home, I just had to come home
Spend some time on my own, see some places I know,
I just had to start over again

Couldn’t tell you the state where I been,
Let me show you the state that I’m in

Could you believe, O jubilee jubilee
So high up above, so far overseas
For you alone I’ll wait, for you along I’ll be
Till I find my, my Jubilee

Open windows, the house you were raised in
Remember the living room trees
You could climb them without going outside, scrape your knees

But I’d done with that load on the southbound road,
With the pines passin by, with the breeze
There was magic behind, and so sure in my mind
There were many such things still to be
There are many such things still to be
I will know when you show them to me

Could you believe, O jubilee jubilee
So high up above, so far overseas
For you alone I’ll wait, for you along I’ll be
Till I find my, my Jubilee

I just had to come home
Had to shake the feeling
That I’d never feel this way again
I just had to let it go
To let it back in
You could always feel this way, again
