[Verse] The porch light flickers on the old front door Every step echoes just like before I hear the footsteps of the boy I knew Racing shadows down the avenue [Chorus] Goodbye old house you raised my dreams You heard my laughter heard my screams I'm walking out but through it all You'll still be where my memories call [Verse 2] That tree out back still holds my name The bark has grown but feels the same The swing still moves in evening breeze Still telling stories through the trees [Prechorus] I never thought I'd leave this road But growing up has its own code [Chorus] Goodbye old house you raised my dreams You heard my laughter heard my screams I'm walking out but through it all You'll still be where my memories call [Bridge] Every mark along the wall Every shadow in the hall Holds a piece of who I was From the days when life began [Verse 3] The driveway gravel knows my shoes It felt the paths I used to choose From scraped up knees to teenage fights To quiet porch and summer nights [Final Chorus] Goodbye old house you raised my dreams You heard my laughter heard my screams I'm leaving now but through it all You'll still be where my memories call [Outro] And if the road gets dark and long I'll hear this place inside my song No matter where my miles may fall You'll always be my first recall
