Shaza Leigh Back To New England Lyrics

He headed out the night he left by train
Needing a change,
From the life that he'd outgrown
Didn't know what he was searching for
Simply wanting more
Than his life had shown
He woke early to discover
He needed what he left behind
Lucky to realise in time.

Now the highway is taking him back to New England
Back to the mountains where he belongs
Yes the highway is taking him back to New England
Back where he won't be alone
Back to his New England home.

Turning his back on a farmers life
He thought it would be nice
In the tropics come spring
Then across the great divide
And through The Isa he thumbed a ride
Trying his hand at anything
Spending winters in the north
And summers south of course
Maybe he lost more than he gained

He woke early to discover
He needed what he left behind
Lucky to realise in time.
