Some songs aren’t just music; they’re a feeling. “Home In My Mind” is one of those songs—a melody soaked in nostalgia, a lyrical embrace that wraps around you like a well-worn blanket. It’s about longing, about carrying a place in your heart even when miles stretch between you and everything you hold dear.
This song speaks to anyone who’s ever been away from home, whether for a short while or a lifetime. The lyrics paint a picture of familiar roads, voices that once filled a house, and the comfort of knowing exactly where you belong—even if you can’t physically be there. It’s a bittersweet tune, one that aches in the best way, reminding us that home isn’t just a place on a map; it’s a feeling we carry inside.
What makes “Home In My Mind” so powerful is the way it blends storytelling with emotion. The melody moves like a slow drive through old hometown streets, and the lyrics are like flipping through a photo album of memories. It’s that kind of song—the one you listen to when you’re watching the sunset, feeling a little homesick, or just reminiscing about the people and places that shaped you.
Whether you’re a traveler, a dreamer, or someone missing the warmth of home, this song hits deep. It’s a reminder that no matter where life takes you, home is never truly out of reach—it lives in your mind, in your heart, and in the echoes of a song like this.

Lyrics
Well I’m a thousand miles away
And it feels like a thousand days
Since I seen that smile, heard that laugh
Felt that touch I’ve been needing so bad
And the only way to get there fast
I’m going home in my mind
Cruising by them Carolina pines
Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive
I can already feel your hand in mine
Sweet tea, porch swings, supper on the stove
Everything I’ve been missing on the road
I can’t be there tonight
But when I close my eyes
I’m going home in my mind
I’m going home in my mind
When I’m fighting off the lonely
Just needing you to hold me
Hung up in a hotel
There ain’t no telling girl where I’m at
But baby I’m coming back
Yeah I’m coming back
I’m going home in my mind
Cruising by them Carolina pines
Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive
I can already feel your hand in mine
Sweet tea, porch swings, supper on the stove
Everything I’ve been missing on the road
I can’t be there tonight
But when I close my eyes
I’m going home in my mind, yeah
I’m going home in my mind, yeah
Wish I could hop on the next flight
And have you by my side
But this’ll have to do tonight
I’m going home in my mind
Cruising by them Carolina pines
Taking it slow, doing 35 down Timber drive
I can already feel your hand in mine
Sweet tea in a porch swings, supper on the stove
Everything I’ve been missing on the road
I can’t be there tonight
But if I close my eyes
I’m going home in my mind
Yeah I’m going home in my mind
