Back Home Again - The Petersens (LIVE)

One of the best things about 2020 was the chance to take a step back and truly enjoy the simple things of life. "Back Home Again" takes us right back to those days of just sitting at home, cooking dinner, playing music, and being with the people we love.

Enjoy a bonus appearance by none other than Mr Aaron Clark himself, who stepped out from behind the camera.

►LYRICS - Back Home Again
There's a storm across the valley, the clouds are rollin' in
The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders
There's a truck out on the four lane, a mile or more away
The whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder

He's an hour away from ridin' on your prayers up in the sky
Ten days on the road are barely gone
There's a fire softly burnin', supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes him warm

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Yes, an' hey, it's good to be back home again

There's all the news to tell him, how'd you spend your time
An' what's the latest thing the neighbors say
And your mother called last Friday, "Sunshine"* made her cry
And you felt the baby move just yesterday

Hey, it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Yes, an' hey, it's good to be back home again

An' all the time that I can lay this tired old body down
(And feel your fingers feather soft on me)
(It's) the kisses that I live for an' the love that lights my way
(The happiness that livin' with you brings me)

It's the sweetest thing I know of, just spending time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burnin', supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes me warm

Hey, it's good to be back home again, yes it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Yes, an' hey, it's good to be back home again
Yes, an' hey, it's good to be back home again

* Fun fact: "Sunshine" was a 1973 movie that John Denver provided much of the soundtrack for, and it was named after his song, "Sunshine on My Shoulders."
