    Lyrics
    OLD POST ROAD
    l.s. howard/r. murdock

    I couldn't fall asleep last night
    Threw the covers from my bed
    Took a drive down suburban streets
    To let my thoughts unwind
    and clear my head
    Something strange occurred to me
    As the sweat rolled down my face
    My restless heart began to pound
    When I arrived in a familiar place

    Same old houses
    with a new coat of paint
    Different faces peeking out of them now
    They look at me
    like I'm a stranger in town
    But my roots are planted
    deep in this ground

    Tidal wave of memories
    rush through my mind
    Driving down the Old Post Road
    Searching for the childhood I left behind
    Driving down the Old Post Road
    I was driving down the Old Post Road
    Driving down the Old Post Road
    We couldn't wait to break out of here
    Took my daddy's car and went for a ride
    Drove it straight into Mirror Lake
    Boy, did me and Bobby catch hell that night

    Those summer nights with Sandy
    under the stars
    The weeping willow
    where I stole my first kiss
    We pledged our love
    and carved our names in a heart
    The tree grew stronger
    while we grew apart

    [chorus]

    [instrumental break]

    As I drove back home and crept into bed
    And the sentimental journey was done
    I remembered what my father said
    He told me "Don't forget
    where you came from"

    Tidal wave of memories
    rushed through my mind
    Thinking 'bout the Old Post Road
    Is it me who's changed
    through all of these times
    Or is it the Old Post Road?
    Is it me who's changed
    Or Old Post Road?

    Take me back to Old Post Road
    C'mon take me back to Old Post Road
    Take me back to Old Post Road
