Hometown
Where I grew up there isn't much
Not even a traffic light
A couple of stores and one scoreboard
Where we'd spend our Friday nights
Oh well I moved out and my parents bought a house
A hundred miles away
Oh, I never would've guessed that I would miss
The place that made me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
I'll no longer be the Homecoming Queen
Everyone will have forgotten me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
Oh people complain to go home for holidays
And sleep in their pink bedrooms
The postered walls
And photos from the halls
When your life was all about high school
Well, that's not what I'll miss
When I come to visit
The streets won't feel the same
Everything looks smaller or I got taller
I only recognize the riverbanks
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
I'll no longer be that late call D.D.
Everyone will have forgotten me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
They say home is where the heart is
But I'm leaving little parts of my heart
Everywhere,
Every house I live in
But there's something so unique
About these redwood trees
And the secrets they keep from when I was sixteen
Or I'm outgrowing rings like them
Still, I'm wondering
Where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
It will always be a big part of me
Though it's fading into memory
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
Not even a traffic light
A couple of stores and one scoreboard
Where we'd spend our Friday nights
Oh well I moved out and my parents bought a house
A hundred miles away
Oh, I never would've guessed that I would miss
The place that made me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
I'll no longer be the Homecoming Queen
Everyone will have forgotten me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
Oh people complain to go home for holidays
And sleep in their pink bedrooms
The postered walls
And photos from the halls
When your life was all about high school
Well, that's not what I'll miss
When I come to visit
The streets won't feel the same
Everything looks smaller or I got taller
I only recognize the riverbanks
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
I'll no longer be that late call D.D.
Everyone will have forgotten me
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
They say home is where the heart is
But I'm leaving little parts of my heart
Everywhere,
Every house I live in
But there's something so unique
About these redwood trees
And the secrets they keep from when I was sixteen
Or I'm outgrowing rings like them
Still, I'm wondering
Where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
When I lose hope and need to come back around
It will always be a big part of me
Though it's fading into memory
Oh, where is home if it's no longer my hometown?
