Through l one wi nding co untry roa ds
But my he art sti ll be ats
for my ho me and my E nglish ro se

from the stra ight to the cr aziest pla ces I've be en
But I long to b e

Just tra velling and pl aying show s
And my he art sti ll be ats

and he to ld me he we nt there to fo llow his dre ams
And h e told me "so n
You know I lost my tru e love
For the sa me exact re ason that yo u crossed the se a"
And I found trut h

And my he art sti ll be ats
