[Verse]
             
 When I was si

             
x years old I 

                 
broke my leg
             
 I was running

             
 from my broth

            
er and his fri

     
ends
             
 And tasted th

             
e sweet perfum

            
e of the mount

              
ain grass as I

       
 rolled down
             
 I was younger

   
 then,
            
Take me back t

     
o when...

[Pre-chorus]
             
 I found my he

             
art and broke 

    
it here
              
 Made friends 

             
and lost them 

              
through the ye

 
ars
              
 And I've not 

             
seen the roari

             
ng fields in s

    
o long,
 
 I know I've g

rown
             
 And I can't w


ait to go home

[Chorus]
            
 I'm on my way
           
 Driving at 90

             
 down those co

       
untry lanes
           
 Singing to 'T

iny Dancer'
             
 And I miss th

             
e way you make

       
 me feel, and 

it's real
             
 We watched th

           
e sunset over 

         
the castle on 

the hill

(   )

[Verse]
             
 Fifteen years

             
 old and smoki

            
ng hand-rolled

          
 cigarettes
             
 Running from 

             
the law throug

              
h the backfiel

            
ds and getting

             
 drunk with my

 
 friends
             
 Had my first 

             
kiss on a Frid

       
ay night,
             
 I don't recko

              
n that I did i

    
t right
              
 But I was you

       
nger then,
            
 Take me back 

       
to when...

[Pre-chorus]
             
 We found week

             
end jobs, when

         
 we got paid
              
 We'd buy chea

             
p spirits and 

              
drink them str

     
aight
             
 Me and my fri

              
ends have not 

             
thrown up in s

             
o long, oh how

            
 we've grown
             
 But I can't w

             
ait to go home

[Chorus]
           
 I'm on my way

,
           
 Driving at 90

 And I miss th

[Bridge]
           
 One friend le

ft to sell clo

thes,
           
 One works dow

n by the coast

,
            
 One had two k


ids but lives 

alone,
        
 One's brother

 overdosed,
       
 One's already

 on his second

 wife
            
 One's just ba

rely getting b

 But these peo

      
ple raised me
             
 And I can't w

[Chorus]
            
 I'm on my way

 I still remem

             
ber these old 

            
country lanes,
            
 When we did n

 And I miss th

 We watched th

           
e sunset over 

             
the castle on 

            
the hill.
