This is a song for all the lonely people out there who find themselves looking for the happiness they knew in their youth. It has a good rocking bass and drum groove to get your blood pumping, and enough emotion to get your head going. It subtly alludes to an old divorced musician who wants to be back out on the road, but knows that time has past. It has nice whining high harmonica solos to make it feel solitary and free.
lyrics
There’s something in the distance that you don’t really see.
The wind across the prairie in a long lost memory.
You’re praying up to Jesus but the answers never come.
You can’t go back to Married or the gold that wasn’t dug.
So you head out on the highway, it’s the only way you know.
You play just one more song to take you home.
Take you home. Take you home.
You play just one more song to take you home.
Where Summer lasts forever and the water’s always clean.
You know the ones who need you everyone’s just what they seems.
The money doesn’t matter much, just the color of your dreams.
The roads are all untravelled and the ways all find the means.
Take the simple things you need, keep the skin close to the bone.
And play just one more song to take you home.
Take you home. Take you home.
You play just one more song to take you home.
Now you’re not sure where you lost your way and you’re not sure where to go.
Now you think you might need somebody ad you’re tired of being alone.
And you’re thinking of the river as it’s running through the night.
The moon is looking silver and the air is feeling bright.
So you fire up the engines, put the radio in tune,
and you play just one more song to take you home.
Take you home. Take you home.
You play just one more song to take you home.
Take you home. Take you home.
You play just one more song to take you home.
