[atmospheric ethereal wistful intro] [Verse 1] Driving down those old familiar streets Memories flooding, bitter and sweet I'm going home again [Verse 2] Every corner holds a piece of the past But it's not the same It's fading so fast [Verse 3] So many memories Walking through the door of the place I once called home, before [pre-chorus] You can never really go home again It's really not the same You can't go back So much will change I tell you it's just a shame [instrumental break] As time moves on... It's a different song... [bridge] Mom and dad still hold me dear Their warm embrace, a comforting space In their love and laughter, I find my place They say I'm welcome to stay I know But there always comes a time when I must go [chorus] No, you can never really go home again It's really just never the same No, you can never really go home again You can't go back You can only change No, you can never really go home again [outro] Driving down those old familiar streets Memories flooding, bitter and sweet I'm going home again... [piano outro]
