Country music superstar Keith Urban is logging in a lot of miles nowadays while on his huge Graffiti U World Tour. So how does Urban find relaxation during such a hectic time? Well, he hits the road.
The star recently shared that he has always found driving to be a healthy escape. When people think of a “happy place” most probably think of the beach or even home, but Keith likes to step on the gas pedal and drive down open country roads.
The entertainer went on to explain to Nash Country Daily, “I love driving, you know? I know that sounds like such a mundane thing, but I’ve always loved driving—it’s such a cathartic thing for me. I love driving all different kinds of things: trucks, cars, big, small, fancy, not fancy. It doesn’t matter. It’s just very cathartic for me. Some people go skiing for that cathartic thing. Some people run a triathlon. Some people go fishing. I go driving. That’s what I do. And being in the studio. I know that sounds weird, but I do that for recreation, but it’s just because I love recording. I really do.”
Feeling stressed? Consider going for a drive and playing some Keith Urban music for good measure.
“Coming Home” Lyrics
I wake up feeling, in my soul I’m
Living someone else’s life
I’m turnin’ into concrete, harder than these city streets
Where no one even cares if I’m alive
I gotta get it right, mmm
Get it right, mmm mmm
There’s a place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me
Wrap myself around you, never let you go
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like
The place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me
Wrap myself around you, never let you go
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like
Coming home, home, home, mmm
Coming home
My mind’s heavy and I can’t sleep, not even a memory
Is good enough to get me through the night, mmm
I’m longin’ for the real thing, people who know the real me
And all the ways to love me back to life
Mmm, I gotta get it right, ooh, yeah
Get it right, ooh, yeah
There’s a place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me
Wrap myself around you, never let you go
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like
The place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me
Wrap myself around you, never let you go
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like
Coming home, home, home, mmm
Coming home, home, home, mmm
Coming home
Yeah I know it’s only one call away, but it’s not the same
Yeah I know it’s only one call away, but it’s not the same (just not the same)
Yeah I know it’s only one call away, but it’s not the same (just not the same)
Yeah I know it’s only one call away, but it’s not the same
There’s a place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me (oh, baby)
Wrap myself around you, never let you go
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like (hey!)
The place that I know where they all know me
I gotta get back now to the ones who love me
Wrap myself around you, never let you go (yeah!)
There’s nothin’ in the world that feels like
Coming home
(Nothin’ in the world)
I’m feeling lost in all the madness
(Nothin’ in the world that feels like I’m)
I need somewhere to ease my mind
Coming home (comin’ home)
These sidewalks filled with different faces (ooh-hoo)
So many places, but there’s none like mine
Coming home
