indiana sun

as i look out on the sunrise on the indiana skyline

and its rays are resting heavy on my face. i think about the days i spent

just wishing i was home again

instead of always traveling place to place. i've been homesick

because i've laid deep roots

in indiana soil where i spent up all my youth

and i've been waiting just to be back home again

and feel the indiana sun shine on my skin. as i look out on the sunset

and i try hard not to forget

all the memories that i made while i was here. i think of all the friends i've made

and all the people i should thank

for lessons i have learned over the years. i've been homesick

because i've laid deep roots

in indiana soil where i spent up all my youth

and i've been waiting just to be back home again

and feel the indiana sun shine on my skin. home is where the heart's been waiting

oh so patient

just to hear the sound

of the back door open

it's always open

i've been hoping just to find my way back here again. because i've been homesick

because i've laid deep roots

in indiana soil where i spent up all my youth

and i've been waiting just to be back home again

and feel the indiana sun shine on my skin. and feel the indiana sun shine on my skin.
