Lyrics:

There's 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 to 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
