Rivers run through my veins
The only place I've ever called home
It might have left but it never left me
I missed those misty mountains
How they always stood tall
And I swear I can still smell the air
Of a late September fall
Mmmm when I think about it all
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes wish I never left
Sometimes gotta get out
Had dreams bigger than that town
Someday I might find that highway home
'Til I can be with you again
Send my love to Lexington
Memories play like a movie
In the back of my mind
Doesn't matter how far I get
My heart's at the county line
Oooh, and I guess that's why
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes wish I never left
Sometimes gotta get out
Had dreams bigger than that town
Someday I might find that highway home
'Til I can be with you again
Send my love to Lexington
Theres a slow sun sinking over those blue grass hills
And when I close my eyes I see it still
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes wish I never left
(G5)
Sometimes I wish I could go back
Sometimes wish I never left
Sometimes you gotta get out
Had dreams bigger than that town
Yeah, someday I might find that highway home
'Til I can be with you again
Send my love
'Til I can be with you again
Send my love to Lexington
