LYRICS
Well I've been down to Georgia
I've seen the streets in the West
I've driven down the 90, hell I've seen America's best
I've been through the Rockies, I've seen Saskatoon
I've driven down the highway 1 just hopin' that I'd see you soon
Cause I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home
I've never been to Alaska, but I can tell you this,
I've been to Lincoln, Nebraska and hell you know it ain't worth shit
I've been through Nova Scotia, Sydney to Halifax
I'll never take any pictures cause I know I'll just be right back
Cause I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home
I've seen a palace in London, I've seen a castle in Wales
but I'd rather wake up beside you and breathe that ol' familiar smell
I never thought you could leave me, I figured I was the one
but I understand your sadness so I guess I should just hold my tongue
But I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home
I know that we're takin' chances, you told me life was a risk
but I just have one last question...
will it be my heart or will it be his?
I'm comin' home

This reminds me of my best friend, we haven't had contact for almost 10 years and I didn't know he was struggling in life. He played this song for me on acoustic and I found out recently he committed suicide. Always check in with your friends. Don't go too long without making sure they are okay. You never know what they are going through and how much they might need you at any moment.
So sorry about your best friend. Very true about not knowing about what someone is going through in life.
🙏🙏🙏
What a wonderful post. Thank you. Suicide is often a very bad decision at a very bad moment on a very bad day.. and nobody there to notice. I've lost my best friend too, this way. I appreciate your words. ❤️
I feel this….so Sorry 😢
@@RaciePSB it’s often a decision not regretted…speaking from personal experience…you’re best friend is in peace
This song is so good that even people from Lincoln, Nebraska have it on their playlist
An they ain't worth shit 💯
😆 🤣 😂 😹
This is a great comment lol
That's hilarious
Ya, we do.
We played this song at my brothers funeral during a slideshow. He loved City and Colour. He was taken too soon at 21, killed on his motorcycle. This song breaks my heart for him... all the places he planned to travel to and never got to. His life was taken in a city he hated and couldn't wait to leave. He's home now with God and hopefully has awesome views of all the places he never got to see in life. We miss you Matthew. I can't wait to see you again
He is not just watching you... He is within you ❤🫂 & all around you 💫 He is EVERYwhere 😇
I hope you can listen to this, all these years later....with a smile. Think of him and remember him. He's waiting for you. ❤
My deepest condolences......r.I.p matthew
Even though in life you had desires and you were not content, everything is fulfilled for you now. God has you, and your thirst is quenched in ways you could have never dreamed. Rest easy Matthew.
Hilarious.
I had this looped on my Ipod flying back from Afghanistan...still makes me cry... R.I.P. Mark Diab
couple years late but thanks for ur service. we all owe you guys an unpayable debt.
That's why you don't invade people's lands
@@coldsun5495 get the fuck out with that man
I'm replying to this 7 years later as this hit home, I grew up during Afghanistan and still vividly remember losing Andrew Grenon in 08 + Mark Diab in 09. It's now 2021 and I've been in the army since 2015, but I'll never forget my motivations to get in.
whose mark diab
This song triggers a certain emotion that I've never experienced before. It's, like, a combination of depression and euphoria. Beautiful, nonetheless.
Good way to sum it up!! :-) love it
I know exactly what you're talking about. This is the first time I listen to this song again in like 2-3 years and it brings back feelings of a different time in my life. Where things seemed more complicated and morose. Idk if it's the song or me being dumb lol
fireinside1984 why say such things :( so mean.
I feel the exact same way man..this song literally gets me everytime. i'm going through a lot of life changes at the moment with a lot of very important decisions to make with a multitude of different outcomes. Listening to this song brought tears to my eyes. It speaks to me in such a beautiful away. I feel it in my heart and soul whenever that voice hits my ears
fireinside1984 how lonely and upset have you been for you to feel the need to say these kind of things? I really hope you figure it out. Good luck.
This song makes me miss someone I don't even think I know, yet
Or someone you wish you could forget
That was deep 😁
Me 😆
I hope you found that person if not you will
100%
You hear this song and read some of these comments from 8 years ago, and you wonder how they’re doing and where they’re at. I hope all those who were struggling were able to find some peace. ❤
Probably crying about the vaccine
I'm currently part of the 3% and plan to stay that way.
Some of us found peace, we could have never found it without people like Dallas
@@mollymcbutthurtwhat a clown comment from you. Why can’t we just enjoy the beautiful music and the beautiful sentiment from the op? Why bring politics or drama into this? Be better
Home is not a place, it’s a person. This song hits hard.
I wish I could hear the words ‘I’m coming home’ one more time.
This song just took me & cut me open in ways i did not expect. Dallas Green is without a doubt one of The Most Underrated Artist Out There!
+CMJF VISUAL not underrated at all, everyone thinks he's amazing
+Braden Kelly I would say he's pretty underrated in a way that not enough people know of him
+Gage Westerik true dude. But I think from Alexisonfire that he got some good recognition :)
God, when this song came out I was living in Nova Scotia, Doing my practicum. It would come on the radio, I would have to hide because I would cry. I missed my family, I was away from home, I did not drive. I was so lonely. Now I hear it and cry as I am across Canada away. Lonely again. Dallas Green pulls at my heart.
Sometimes all you have is yourself my love your be a stronger person going through those motions you don’t need anyone and your the best
every time he plays this song live he asks everyone to just focus on the music and to put away the phones and the cameras. and everyone obeys and just listens to him play and its truly magical. I have seen him 3 times and he does it every time.
I saw him in Manchester on Tuesday, he didn't do that :( was still an awesome vibe!!
he does that with body in a box not this song.
YES he did that when I saw him! It gives me chills remembering how beautiful it was!
Now that's a good musician full yeah now I wanna go see them..
Love that
This song sounds so different when you’re happy vs depressed. Both sound beautiful but definitely sound so much different.
Found this song a decade ago while in depression. This song is soooo much for me. And still 2022 I love it just as much. So many memories and feelings from that time come rushing back. Although they’re not all pleasant, I like to have them to remember what I’ve come out of.
Exactly my thoughts… glad to have came across him again.
“But I’d rather wake up beside you, and breathe that old familiar smell” I felt that line hard
probably the best song writer to come out of Canada the last 30 years...I love this guy...writes from the heart...you feel it in every word and note
Have you never heard of Gord Downie?????
TIM WRIGHT feel sad you don’t know gord downie
Matt
Him and Matthew Good
TIM WRIGHT check out Kevin Matisyn from Canada🍁
If this song isn’t playing at my funeral I’m not dying!🤍
Uh oh. 😂
This song makes me want to travel on a road trip by my self. I get a lonely vibe from this song and I love it.
Its not mine lol, I have a Miata which is lowered and everything though!
+LeadFootLiam Miata Mafia. Too bad I only have a Ranger atm
Buddy you should become a truck driver for a year
You'd love it.
Get paid to travel
+LeadFootLiam dude.... you just looked into my soul
+LeadFootLiam this is exactly my feeling!
This song was what my brother played over and over just before he passed from bone cancer a year ago. I love this song it reminds me of him and I love and miss him more than I could have ever imagined. RIP Larry ❤🦋
ua-cam.com/video/MOwJTURljRk/v-deo.html
got to hear this !!! :) !!!
Feel like I was supposed to see this post, I also have bone cancer just got diagnosed, this song makes me think of my boyfriend who passed away just recently these 5-7 months but I know he's in a good place.
@@cebe2624 sending love, that's hard news. I hope you can heal asap!!
puts me in tears every time I get to sing "I've seen the palace in London I've seen the castle in whales but is rather wake up beside you and breath that old familiar smell"
Wales
@@tspandebitje must you...
Whales 😂
@@trevr1969 yes...otherwise we all become dumb
🐳 Whales 🐋 . Snails 🐌 . Kales 🍃 . Males 🤼♂️♂️ . Jails ⛓ . Nails 💅 . 📨 Mails 📬 .....
(To be continued...?)
He's saying all these places don't mean shit. Not just Lincoln, Nebraska.... Nothing compares to home especially by her side.
YouKnowHowIDo420
thats my name.. dont wear it out!! :P
And breathe that all familiar smell!
It's so easy to just listen to this and let thoughts overwhelm you
as does literally EVERY City and Colour songs, the first band to make cry
This guy is the reason I fell in LOVE with ALEXISONFIRE!!! He has an amazing voice. Wish he would redo Rough Hands as an acoustic
On some acoustic recording albums he has done small bits of acoustic...different AOF songs. In concert too. It's quite freaking fantabulous 😍. Dallas is a man like.no other.
Years went by more years go by & im always brought back here Dallas ✨thank you
I've fallen asleep listening to my brother play this song upstairs on his guitar so many times. Great song
One of the best vocalists in alternative music of all time
when one guy and a guitar can do this, theres still hope.
two guitars
Bon Iver I go for that, depressed now that I'm here when I have everything going good in life
@@Jimberley123 the song would be just as good with the singer and rhythm guitar and without the lead soloist guitarist, but you certainly have a point
Two guitars and two chords
@@kgarber2894 you people saying "two guitars" are 100% the least fun people ever. Get a grip.
for me, one of the best canadaian made songs of all time.
City and Colour is the best 🤘🎶 but you must’ve hear “Winding Road” by SLT 🎹🔥🎧
Still one of the best songs ever written. This sing is still and will be, forever, amazing in every way.
These days you listen to music and its mediocre a lot of it, but every once in awhile you come across a song that when they sing that first note it just breaks your heart.... captures your soul and when you close your eyes it takes you to another place. This is one of those songs

All the references to Canada in this song make it the most nostalgic thing ever for me. My grand parents are from Sydney, my grandfather worked in the mines there for years. I've lived in BC myself and have been on HWY1 a number of times. County road 90 is less than an hour from where i live now in Ontario, its just odd for me.
Was never into city and colour but i always liked this song because of that.
This song broke my heart the first time I heard it. Every person who's lived the life of the itinerant can relate. His music still breathes the pain of understanding and loss that is the compromise of modern life. As I sit in Sydney and dream of Halifax. Beautiful and touching music.
I just got back here in Florida last week from two months of traveling and exploring the U.S. I've seen beautiful things and met some beautiful people and I was never sure if really ever wanted to come home. I stopped at a open mic coffee shop in Utah and heard a girl play this song with all her heart and soul. I decided right there that I needed to get back home, and that home might not be where my heart is, but its where I was born and raised, its where I learned and loved for 19 years of my life. Coming home just feels good.
I know just how you feel, I went from Jacksonville Florida up the coast to Virginia, then down to Alabama and back through Georgia, took 3 months. Sitting at home having family and friends just a short ride away is a nice feeling.
I recently moved across the country to try to better myself. This song definitely hits me hard. Miss my family, but its what I have to do for a better life.
I don't know why but every time I listen to this song I just sing with so much emotion. It makes me feel so much empathy, sadness, pain and happiness all at once. This song is so powerful and it just hits home for me. Dallas Green is an angel in disguise 👼💕
crazy how many memories just flash through my head when listening to this..
A book lead me here. And I'm glad it did. ❤❤❤
I've seen saskatooon🎶🎵.. Nice to know he's been through my city👍🏼
Go back to Italy you whop.
This song has always been so underrated, the emotions it triggers are so huge. Some days it makes me smile in a "all the things I still have to see" kinda way and some days it makes me so sad, I cry with no sound and stop breathing from the pain. It's a true masterpiece and should be recognised more. Known this since it came out and have loved it since then.
This man is one of the most talented musicians and beautiful singers I’ve ever come across. So many of his songs reach out to me as if I’d write them myself.
My late brother borrowed all my cds one night, that the power was out.. & he loved City & Color - Sometimes album.
It was a really big connection between him & I from then on. ❤️
Still remember the first time I heard this work of art. I was in HMV in Sherway Gardens and heard this song playing in the store. The person told me who it was when I asked and I bought the C.D. Right there. I was in there looking for a hip hop album at the time. Been a fan ever since.

got to hear this !!! :) !!!
My brother at age 14 introduced me to city and colour. I was 22. He changed my life forever. Love you Ash Hillis, your love for music has helped shape the beauty of music for me x love you little bro
Who's still listening in 2019 ! This song gets me in my feels. I love you Junior... always will.
Under 4 million views!?! This is a gem, in every way possible..
Just hits you in the heart
"I never thought you could leave me. I figured I was the one"
That line hits hard
This part hits the hardest.
They always leave
2019 and it still hits like a kick in the chest.
You said it brother.
2022 and it hasn’t changed one bit since the first time I heard this.
2022 now…
My anxiety is rolling rn listing to this
@@xbumpa 2023 checking in
Showed this song to my dad 2 months before he passed and he fell in love with it.. This song will always overwhelm me.
Love you fam ❤🫂 Know that he's not just watching you, he's within you 😇
He's everywhere 🌌
❤️
I remember when this song came out almost 12 years ago now... Still an amazing song!
haven't heard this in like 10 years and it's still magical 😭
this song has been in my head every day for literally years now
They say music can relate to the weather or time of year. This is definitely a winter song.
Been clean 9 months! This song just drives me another 9! Thanks city n colour!
Amazing singer songwriter.. unmatched in last 25 years. Love this band . Keep them coming!!
He said LINCOLN, Nebraska ain't worth shit. Not the whole damn state. People calm down!
But honeslty I don't care because I'm from Canada!
+Fuarian Canadians are the best ;)
I don't even think he's talking shit about Lincoln. He could have said any city anywhere but being on the road ain't worth it if she ain't there.
he's saying the fact he's been places ain't worth shit, nothing to do with the city or state.
hur hur hur - he said your city sucks.
You do realise half the world thinks your entire country aint worth shit?
Nebraska boring as hell ...
I'm sitting here almost in tears! I've missed Dallas Greens set 10 years in a row!
I'm missing it again tonight in Vancouver!
Thanks for the inspiration! You changed my life!
This isn't simply a song being sung by vocalist...no no no....this here is medicine for the weary souls being prescribed by a soul whisperer
ua-cam.com/video/MOwJTURljRk/v-deo.html
got to hear this !!! :) !!!
Melancholy self reflection at its finest. People that have moved away from home, or travel frequently can relate. That longing to go home, to be with the people you love. This song describes my heart, it is perfection. This artist is amazing, and almost all his songs are hauntingly beautiful. Especially Sleeping Sickness with Gord Downey 💔
"I just have one last question, will it be my heart? Or will it be his?" Brings tears to me eyes.. because it hurts.
I feel this all to well ..
Pos cop
Every time I listen to this song, I'm remembered why I have a red maple leaf and the words "Comin' home" tattoed on me. Based in Germany, but Canadian at heart
Inretrospect. I'm German but I came last year to Canada and I find my NEW home !! I love it !!!!
I get the notion you’re military. If so, stay safe over there.
I ate Canadian bacon and realised it wasn't bacon...
🍁🍁🍁🍁
My daughter played this song and I know it's for Alex...I cried because it's her first 💔.I wish she'd come home 😢. Haunting and beautiful song
Good ol Canadian boy, mad love from Edmonton Dallas

Been listening to this song for 10 years!
Never gets old.
I absolutely love this song ❤
this is forever my favorite city and colour song
I seen him live when I was a teenager, he's better live I sware.
Dallas green is and was a hidden gem to the world. Beautiful artist
This song makes Canada proud!! 🙌
Being homeless comes in different forms. This song explains why. The odds of me finding where home went are the same as learning how to find a new home.
His voice is just as perfectly flawless live!
I don’t even listen to this man, but this is beyond a beautiful song . Much respect.
He’s amazing
Heard this on the radio while driving recently and couldn't not look this up. This song and the words carry so much weight that it's impossible not to think about emotional things in your life
I'm so in love with this song ❤️ gets me everytime ☺️
This man has gracious talent and blows every new artist way way way out of the water
a bottle of gin and a life of regret on your mind make this song just brutal at 10pm
+joshua millard :(
u got that right man
joshua millard i feel you on that except its after 11 and i have rum
joshua millard or just chilling. thinking about whatever just jamming some great tunes but def has some liquor involved lol
I feel you man :(
I just came across this song after 10 years, it takes me back to better days… thanks for the beautiful nostalgia…
City and Colour is the best 🤘🎶 but you must’ve hear “Winding Road” by SLT 🎹🔥🎧
Home is a feeling.!😇
I only came across this song two weeks ago and the emotions it evokes is beyond words.
Amazing song, bonus points for castles in Wales.
This is your star, your trophy, your ultimate best of songs...
WWHatttttt no wayyyy😯🤩 he has a very good voice. i definitely didn’t expect that. don’t judge a book by its cover

This song... got damn 😩💖
Reminds me of my late Husband.

@@user-qd3bd8ny9g Thank you ☺
16 years ago. I can't believe it. City, Alexis, has been such a foundation for me. Please, don't ever stop.
I love you so much Herlla. I'm glad you're finally comin' home. My soul has been begging for you.
The guitar slides give me goosebumps!

This song turns 4 minutes into an hour.
One song, a million memories. Holy shit. So much emotion, Dallas Green is a genius

The dislikes are from Nebraska!
Because it isn't worth shit.

Still hits home in 2024
Still brings me right back to her in my mind
This song makes me want to drive down a rainy road that never ends.
Nothing like traveling the world to find real love...beautiful
This video and song is my life in my head at the moment. Describes to a tee..
Seen him live in Wolfville NS a few weeks ago. Sounds even better live, I was blown away.
Beautiful. My favorite song by city and coulour.
I seen him live years ago with a girl I really loved, I remember her starting to cry at some of his songs and I just held her the whole time, I remember what she was wearing, the way her hair was and even the way she smelt that night. Fuck I miss her, I hope she's happy with this other guy. I shouldn't be here.
Lincoln, Nebraska catchin strays over here
I love this song! I am from Nova Scotia and love when he sings about being in NS....nice compliment to my Province!❤
1st City song i ever heard..connected to it instantly..
I remember this song so well, I was searching for it like an idiot! Dallas Green lyrics are so AWESOME!
Love this song ..,hail from Sydney N.S.
