Almost Home - Ben Rector

I lost my shoes in New York City

So I bought some new because that felt fitting, yeah yeah

But the pavement underneath them walked those city streets and felt alive, yeah

I almost quit in Oklahoma

Ten years out here will take a toll, yeah

One million miles of fear and beauty

And I could not explain it even if I tried

That’s alright, oh yeah

Cause we’re almost, we’re almost home

We’re almost, we’re almost home

We’re almost, we’re almost home

Yeah

I was offered hope and fear and savior

I was offered sex from total strangers, mmm

And with all that noise around me, I found a peace that I could call my own

And we’re almost home, oh oh yeah

Cause we’re almost, we’re almost home

But we’re almost, we’re almost home

But we’re almost, we’re almost home

Yeah, uh huh huh

We’re almost, we’re almost home

Just another hundred miles and then it’s done

We’re almost, we’re almost home, oh

Seen a lifetime of pain and beauty, oh

Felt fear and joy running through me, yeah

You can lose yourself out on this road

We’re almost, almost home

And we’re almost, almost home

We’re almost, almost home, yeah yeah

And we’re almost, we’re almost home

Just another thousand miles and then we’re done

We’re almost, we’re almost home
