There is a road outside Columbus Ohio

Feels like I drove along for years

This midwest way of ease it surrounds us

I can't deny the rhythm here

And as I pull away from riverside beside me

That high street never looked so good

I miss my lady even though she often writes me

She tells me tales of my neighborhood

Surprise surprise

I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I'm known

My friends are here

A couple years I've spent

I found I have a second home

As I'm blazing down my trail in education

There's no bliss in ignorance for me

I stop and stare

A breath of air might slow me down some

But that's just fine with me

Surprise surprise

I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I'm known

My friends are here

A couple years I've spent

I found I have a second home

I never traveled far

Two hundred miles to go

That boulevard

Will take me home

Surprise

Surprise

I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I'm known

My friends are here

A couple years I've spent

I found I have a second home

Surprise surprise

I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I'm known

My friends are here

A couple years I've spent

I found I have a second home
