Lyrics:
Azalea, do you hear those voices callin’ for ya
Do they tell you what you need to know and
Do they point you to the way back home
It might not seem the same since you’ve been grown
Everything looks withered to the bone

Time will bring the rain
You can bloom again the same

Half the learnin’s in the leavin’
That’s the only thing we fear
Maybe it’s not out there
Maybe this leads nowhere
Home will always be right here

Azalea, life ain’t always kind enough to warn ya
Your heart ain’t the same as California
Getting by it don’t mean getting strong
Coming back don’t mean your leaving here was wrong
Sorry ain’t the same as moving on

Even when you pray
You don’t always get your way

Half the learnin’s in the leavin’
That’s the only thing we fear
Maybe it’s not out there
Maybe this leads nowhere
Home will always be right here

Oh, I see everywhere you left behind you
I kiss the wind and hope that it will find you

Remember when you fall
You can outrun it all

Half the learnin’s in the leavin’
That’s the only thing we fear
Maybe it’s not out there
Maybe this leads nowhere
Home will always be right here

"Half the learning's in the leaving" -That's a FACT!

These boys are an American gem. For my generation, 59 yrs old, they speak to the innocence of our inner child and help us see the wisdom in the road we have traveled. Beautiful tune. Thanks BBS.

3:00 "I kiss the wind and hope that it will find you." Such a great line.

Always a good day when there’s a new blackberry smoke song! 🎉

RIP dear Brit Turner. The band's compass has had its life behind it. You will be remembered with this song.

[karenotoole]

Beautiful words and music. I’m not surprised. Blackberry Smoke does it again! Best band in the land!

[davidbishop]

Great song here. Charlie's vocal performance stands out. I don't think he's ever sounded better. Can't wait to hear the entire album

[AndyHolmes-ib]

I'm 52 and I grew up in the sticks of upstate SC - my grandmother was well known in our little community for growing azaleas from cut blooms off of another plant...this song makes me long for those days. Such simple times and such good memories. ain't many songs makes a man shed a tear but this is one of' em

[MrEric]

Old Georgia boy here. Hate to say that I've been gone almost 20 years from where I was raised. This band always tugs my heartstrings. To see my home, and to see my Mama. Well done fellas, I got a road trip to plan. Right down 75.

[Mustang-mike]

In these dark days, this band brings light and joy of fantastic past memories. Thank you guys! Sorry for loss . Looking forward to seeing you in July again in NewBrunswick, Canada 🇨🇦

What a beautiful song & video...born & raised Georgia girl & I just love seeing Poole's BBQ in the background!!! RIP Brit!

[amyhenry]

Blackberry Smoke makes me proud to be a Georgia girl. Saw them this year in Atlanta, they are even better live!!! Could listen to them

[VonBluesman]

Making great music is definitely what y’all were born to do. 👍🎸😎✌️

[julieglidden]

This one has a smooth mellowness that just warms your soul. Half the learnin's in the leavin'! 💖

[TommyOmallet]

I put the headphones on my little Granddaughter Ruby, and play Azalea videos for her watching her bounce to the sounds. I’ve been trying to workout the guitar parts on acoustic (an Open C tuning of sorts). She rushed my stage (she is learning to talk) & clearly stated, “ I Like It “ . . . Feeling blessed listening to Azalea.

[randytritt]

Where there's smoke there's fire and these boys are definitely on fire!! Keep rocking guys you all kno what real music the heart!!!!🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥

[thomasvanhorn]

Pure and Simple .... Just a Good Feel Song no matter where you're from, Every one misses home when being on the road for too long. Good vocal Charlie

[chuckjackson]

Can't stop playing this song on a never ending loop!

[dieterbartels]

What a beautiful song. Does not matter where you live. This song makes you homesick and you are missing where you grew up... a lot. Love you guys.

Carolina boy here, from just outside of the home of the azalea festival. Seen these guys with Jaime Johnson in S.C. and was blown away!!! 54 yrs old and every song they play hits hard! Great song and video, every old car and building has a story of long gone but not forgotten people. 😢 definitely makes you wish you could go back home .
