Bygone Town

Are you somewhere waiting on a train
In a bygone town without a name
Waiting on your life to change
In a bygone town
Where it rains more than it used to
And you can't do the things that you want to do
And you dream of going somewhere new
In a bygone town

But if you stay
Maybe time to slow down
Maybe stop your feet from running
Take the long way around
Come what may
And if you go
Maybe you'll get tired of running
But there's no way of ever knowing
If you'll ever come back around
This little bygone town

Maybe you don't pray like you used to
You put up your hands and say what's the use
And lately you'd use any excuse
To say goodbye now
Yeah you're always expecting the worst
Said it feels like your life got stuck in reverse
And you drive right past that little white church
In a bygone town

But if you stay
Maybe time to slow down
Maybe stop your feet from running
Take the long way around
Come what may
And if you go
Maybe you'll get tired of running
But there's no way of ever knowing
If you'll ever come back around
This little bygone town

Where the days are lonely
And you feel only pain
Oh let your peace be still
Let the savior heal
And make you whole again
Oh can't you hear it
Somewhere a little white church
Is calling your name

Why don't you stay
It's your time to slow down
Don't stop your tears from falling
Turned yourself back around
Come what may
It's a new day
And you can feel better just knowing
That these doors are always open
I'll be praying you'll come back around
This little bygone town
