I can say I'm glad to be back,
I can finally go and unpack
The country air is so sweet, just listen to the bird tweet, tweet.
I had been gone, far away in a hospital for a couple of days.
the town was small, smaller than mine, but I'm glad I left at the right time.
I felt home sick, it was like a tick, to be stuck in there, no fresh air.
Like the one I have here, it's very clear.
I'm just happy to be home, to be in a place I can't let go.
This place is my life, my guiding light, this place is home
my quiet zone.
