Foothill Freeway Lyrics

I waited long enough

These years of yearning were rough

It's about time I take that flight

I'm hitting the west coast tonight

It's a quest to rediscover all those great and simple images in whose presence my heart first opened

Driving Foothill Freeway

Heading towards Azusa

Sun is blasting brightly like it always used to

Those friendly old mountains are a sight for sore eyes

As I weep a fountain flooding memories in my mind

Got the windows down, the wind in my hair

Sun on my face as I ride thru this familiar place

Crossing the San Gabriel River on Route 66

Every turn brings back a memory

Feels like I never left, like time has stood still

Driving Foothill Freeway

Trip down memory lane

Reignited emotions I can't explain away

Look at this place, very little has changed

It's like I left it on pause like a video game

I've come back to reclaim what I lost

What if I never left?

Foothill Freeway, memory lane

Getting closer today, I know the way

Oh Azusa, Hallelujah!

Foothill Freeway takes me, I'm on my way

This time I'll stay

26 years is a long time

It's not a dream

I'm home
