Have you ever felt that bittersweet pull of longing for a place you can’t physically reach but still carry in your heart? That’s the magic of “Home In My Mind.” This song is a tender love letter to the memories that shape us, the places we call home—even if they exist now only in our dreams.
Listening to this song feels like stepping into an old photograph, where every note is a brushstroke painting the familiar sights, sounds, and smells of where you grew up. The lyrics beautifully capture that yearning for simpler times, when life was slower, and the little things—like the creak of a front porch swing or the scent of home-cooked meals—made the world feel complete.
What makes “Home In My Mind” so special is how it speaks universally to the human experience. Whether your “home” is a small town, a bustling city, or a loved one’s embrace, this song taps into those personal memories that make us who we are. It’s not just about nostalgia—it’s about finding solace in knowing that home, no matter how far away, lives on in your mind and heart.
The melody is warm and inviting, wrapping around you like a comforting hug. Paired with heartfelt vocals and lyrics that hit you right where it matters, it’s the kind of song that makes you pause, reflect, and maybe even shed a tear for the places you miss most

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
