Harbor Road

Verse 1

My boots are caked with island red clay

The radio crackles out a foreign tongue

I traded my truck for a two-dollar bus

And I've been singing songs they've never sung

Pre-Chorus

But the palm trees sway just like the pines back home

And the ocean hums a tune I recognize

Chorus

Carry my heart down the harbor road

Where the mango trees bend low

I'm a long way from those Carolina hills

But this island feels like home somehow

Carry my heart down the harbor road

Verse 2

Mississippi in my voice when I say goodbye

Jamaica in the rhythm of my feet

She braids my hair and calls me cowboy

Teaching me a slow and steady beat

Pre-Chorus

Same moon hanging over a different sea

Same stars wishin' right along with me

Chorus

Carry my heart down the harbor road

Where the mango trees bend low

I'm a long way from those Carolina hills

But this island feels like home somehow

Carry my heart down the harbor road

Bridge

Steel drum rollin' under a fiddle's cry

Two worlds in my chest learnin' how to fly

I left one life and found another lane

And I'd ride this island road again

Chorus

Carry my heart down the harbor road

Where the mango trees bend low

I'm a long way from those Carolina hills

But this island feels like home somehow

Carry my heart down the harbor road
