about

Gentle swaying song with layered instrumentation and vocals. Almost didn't make the album but ended up being the closest thing to a title track on the Heartlands album

lyrics

BACK TO YOUR HOMELAND
(words and music by Steve Austin)

I’ll sing to you a lullaby
Of rolling green seas
May the birds in the firmament
Bring you back to me

I’ll sing to you of greater things
Than just you and I
The clouds in the mighty sky
They will watch over you

I’ll sing to you a melody
As old as these hills
That seasons will always change
Is how it’s ever been

If I could save you
I’d save you from yourself
You need somebody
We all need someone to help us out of here
When you’re walking into walls
Can’t find the door
To take you from this hell
Back to your heartland
Back to your homeland

I’ll sing to you of yesterday
And everything we made
Our laughter, it chimed above
Oh may it ring again

I’ll sing to you of days to come
And all that may yet be
May the birds in these autumn trees
Never leave us

If I could save you
I’d save you from yourself
You need somebody
We all need someone to help us out of here
When you’re walking into walls
Can’t find the door
To take you from this hell
Back to your heartland
Back to your homeland
Back to your heartland
Back to your homeland
Back to your homeland

I’ll sing to you a lullaby
Of rolling green seas
May the birds in the sky above
Guide you back to me
