You Take Me Home

You're the fog that's in my headlights
You're the dust around my car
Rollin' down some country road passed dilapidated barns
You're memories in my mirror
That I glance at every now and then

You're the shadows in the picture that I carry in my coat
The words to songs I sing
You're the songs I never wrote
You're the sad eyed one I dream of
On nights when I can't sleep at all

You take me home
You take me home

You're the Redwing Blackbird flyin' in a perfect Midwest sky
Gingham on a gigglin' girl
You're chicken 'bout to fry
You're miles and miles of winter wheat and milo
You're fields of green

You take me home
You take me home

You're picnic table talk in towns with public swimmin' pools
Freckles in the summer
Breakin' all the rules
Makin' love on backroads in backseats
Of old family cars

That's who we are
You take me home

You take me home
You take me home
