[Verse 1]
East in June
Trade the brightest of greens of Summer
For the dreams of navy blue
East in June
Leave the calm Pacific breeze
For an Atlantic rendezvous
[Chorus]
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
And as the sun dips down I know
No matter where my body goes
Every road eventually leads me back home
[Verse 2]
I am gonna see if I can get to Tennessee
And write a song about the sea
That we can sing along to
I am gonna see if I can get to Tennessee
And write a song about the sea
To cure my landlocked blues
[Chorus]
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
We're gonna get there, we're gonna get back home
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
We're gonna get back to the coast
And as the sun dips down I know (we know)
No matter where my body goes (we go)
Every road eventually leads me back home
To the ocean we know
Every road eventually leads me back home
[Bridge]
To the ocean, to the ocean
My heart's tied to the coast
If I stay I'll be a ghost
You wouldn't like me anyway
To the ocean, to the ocean
I take my air with salt
I hear the wind and waves a-calling
It's not my fault, it's DNA
[Verse 3]
That's the way its got to go
When I drive back through Nashville
I'm gonna stop and say, "Hello"
Just long enough to write a song
That will get me to Seattle
[Chorus]
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
We're gonna get there, we're gonna get back home
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
We're gonna get back to the coast
And as the sun dips down I know (we know)
No matter where my body goes (we go)
And every road eventually leads me back home
To the ocean we know
And every road eventually leads me back home
