Default Best songs about leaving home...
You guys have any ideas? I'm looking to make a CD for my best friend, but I'm not having much luck finding good songs.


Help!

Dang. You stole my answer.

Anyway - that's a great one.

And this one may not be so much about leaving but..."So Far Away" Carole King.

"Soul Drifter" was my leaving home song when I moved out in 2000. "So it's off to other lands, you see...it's a new dawn, so it's so long..." Perfect if you ask me!

I also second "Wide Open Spaces", Dixie Chicks...that was another of my moving songs. I wish I could think of more right now, I know there were *tons*...!
