This is one of the oldest songs on the album. I wrote it in March of 2012, after moving from Pennsylvania to Indiana the prior fall. It's my ode to Central-PA. I had home-recorded & released a previous version (which you might be able to find on YouTube), but, much like the idea behind "Picture This"...

lyrics

V1) Moving your life eight hours west.
Trying like hell to do your best.
Wanting to win at all you do.
Family & friends that all love you.
Hitting the curve-balls that life throws.
All new people you don’t know.
Things that you’ve never seen before:
a world of wonders outside your door.

CH) Home misses you, when you miss home.
With home in your heart you’re, never alone.
Home misses you, when you miss home.
It’s never too late to, pick-up a phone.
Home misses you: when you miss home.

V2) These are a few of my favorite things;
I hope you relate to the joy they bring:
Hershey Bears games half the year,
Drinking Troeg’s latest scratch beer.
Hockey at Hillside on Sunday,
Lager is best we used to say.
Negley Park’s a lovely view,
Lotus, Alyssa, Violet & Eli too.
Artsfest, Kipona, Shady’s vibe,
The dog park, and old Green Lane Drive.
These are a few of my favorite things;
I hope you relate to the joy they bring:

CH) Home misses you, when you miss home.
With home in your heart you’re, never alone.
Home misses you, when you miss home.
It’s never too late to, pick-up a phone.
(repeat)

With years of experience under their belts, this trio is ready to change the way you view the sounds that can come from just three musicians. Melodic, ethereal, at times jagged - beautiful though... Grant McClintock
