Missing Years

I bet you never thought you'd see me

'Round these parts again

'Cause five minutes after graduation

I blew out of here like the wind

Was the first one in four generations

To think there had to be something more

And whatever I was missing

Was damn sure worth looking for

So I hit the road, that lonely, lonesome road

And I got lost in Arizona

Trying to find my place in the sun

Met a girl in Oklahoma

Turns out, she was not the one

Made my way into the Carolinas

Wandered up and down the coast

Till it dawned on me, what I'd left right here

And what I'd been missing in my missing years

It's the smell of the morning coffee

At the Liberty Cafe

A smile and a wave from old Sonny

Like I hadn't missed a day

Well, it sure ain't much to look at

Just a dusty drive through town

But the roots that run beneath it

Are what make it sacred ground

And I've seen enough to know

What makes a place a home

'Cause I got lost in Arizona

Trying to find my place in the sun

Met a girl in Oklahoma

Turns out that she was not the one

Made my way into the Carolinas

Wandered up and down the coast

Till it dawned on me, what I'd left right here

And what I'd been missing in my missing years

Made my way from the Carolinas

To this one lane gravel road

'Cause it dawned on me, what I left right here

Is what I'd been missing in my missing years

What I'd be missing in my missing years
