歌词

[00:21.89] I know they say you can't go home again
[00:28.78] I just had to come back one last time
[00:35.14] Ma'am, I know you don't know me from Adam
[00:41.13] But these hand prints on the front steps are mine
[00:47.03] Up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
[00:53.55] Is where they did their homework and learned to play guitar
[00:59.82] And I bet you didn't know underneath that live oak
[01:05.93] My favorite dog is buried in the yard
[01:11.71]
[01:12.70] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[01:18.97] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[01:24.97] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[01:28.37] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[01:34.91] If I could just come in, I swear I'll leave
[01:38.51] Won't take nothing but a memory
[01:43.01] From the house that built me
[01:53.95] Mama cut out pictures of houses for years
[02:00.07] From Better Homes and Garden magazines
[02:05.71] Plans were drawn and concrete poured
[02:08.35] Nail-by-nail and board-by-board
[02:11.49] But once the kids were grown, it was just too much for me
[02:15.69]
[02:18.74] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[02:24.97] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[02:31.24] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[02:34.45] I thought that maybe I could find myself again
[02:41.14] If I could just come in, I swear I'll leave
[02:44.84] I won't take nothing but a memory
[02:48.44] From the house that built me
[02:59.51] They leave home, they move on, and you do the best you can
[03:04.89] I got lost in this ol' world and forgot who I am
[03:12.88]
[03:15.45] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[03:20.34] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[03:27.47] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[03:30.57] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[03:36.71] Ma'am, if I could walk around, I swear I'll leave
[03:42.78] Won't take nothing but a memory
[03:45.47] From the house that built me
