Текст песни
[Verse 1] You left your blue coat on the kitchen chair Rain tapped the glass, but you weren't there I found your note beneath the coffee tin Three crooked words: don't follow where I've been [Verse 2] The old Ford coughed by the county line Your photograph was folded in the visor shine I drove past fields turned silver in the cold Every mile made the silence grow old [Chorus] If you hear me, turn around I'm still waiting where the gravel meets the ground I won't ask you where you've gone Just come home before the morning carries on [Verse 3] Mama keeps your name beside the Sunday prayer Your boots are by the door, untouched, still there The porch light burns above the rusted swing Some promises get heavy when they mean everything [Bridge] I was proud, and I was wrong Let the hard years fall away If there's a road that leads you back I'll be standing there today [Chorus] If you hear me, turn around I'm still waiting where the gravel meets the ground I won't ask you where you've gone Just come home before the morning carries on [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] If you hear me, turn around Lay your tired heart beside this worn-out town I won't ask you where you've gone Just come home before the morning carries on [Outro] The blue coat hangs in the kitchen chair This time, I swear, I'll meet you there
