Here, here is where I was born
My father's son
In the heart of the country

Here I got my family tree
Deep down in me Still growing strong

But there, there are those city lights
Shining bright
Calling me

And there is where I got to go
Or I'll never know
Who I can be

Sometime between now and then
I'll find my way back home
But until you see me walking
Down that long and dusty road
I'll be somewhere between here and there

Here I've got a world I know
It may be slow
But it's true

And her I got my Ann-Marie
She needs me
And I need her too

But there, there are those city lights
Shining bright
Calling me

And though it's more that I can bear
I've got to go
Cause my dreams are there
