I told myself getting out

That's what this is all about

Sun goes up, sun goes down

You only get one go-around

Then I left this town

Then I let that road carry me as far as it could carry me

Stood on a mountain for me

Found a place where I can breathe in and out

And thought about things that I can't live without



I keep coming back time after time

No matter where I'm at

I can't pretend I've found something better

Than where I've been

It's where I'm from

It's who I am

And no matter how far that I run

Yeah, I keep coming back



They say the more people change the more that they stay the same

So I just stop everything thought about all the things

Weighing me down

Then I threw out old boxes

Emptied my pockets

Of regrets and love letters

Pictures and lockets

And all I have now is the truth that I've found

Life has a way of just turning around and around and around



I keep coming back time after time

No matter where I'm at

I can't pretend I've found something better

Than where I've been

It's where I'm from

It's who I am

And no matter how far that I run

Yeah, I keep coming back



To the town on the hill

So peaceful and still

Where my memories are at

Yeah I keep coming back time after time

No matter where I'm at

I can't pretend I've found something better

Than where I've been

It's where I'm from

It's who I am

And no matter how far that I run

No matter how far

No matter how far that I run

Yeah, I keep coming back

I keep coming back

I keep coming back

Oooh
