Tied Down

I just long to be somewhere, where the rivers are rushing faster
 Keep moving towards a place with mountains that stretch high
 My legs are strong to take me out running
 Through the fields that are never brown
 I don't want to dig my car out of the snow everyday for six months out of
 the year
 I'm tied down to Michigan, there ain't no home like this one
 I'm leaving Michigan, with my heart on my sleeve for the world to steal
 I'm going find myself, missing the lakes and beaches where I was a boy
 Some people will be left, wishing I had stayed
 There ain't no cure for this feeling like moving our lives around
 I want to be somewhere that people appreciate these kinds of songs
 I'm tied down to Michigan, there ain't no home like this one
 I'm leaving Michigan, with my heart on my sleeve for the world to steal
 Been settling down in this town where we all came together
 My wife and my friends, we became a family here
 I won't ever betray my memories tasting other seas and landscapes
 These trees are fruit and these dreams are free
 I'm tied down to Michigan, there ain't no home like this one
 I'm leaving Michigan, with my heart on my sleeve for the world to steal
