The corner store still flickers Like it never learned to sleep. Every crack along the pavement Knows the weight beneath my feet. I thought I left this town behind, Somewhere I could start again. But every road I take tonight Just brings me back here in the end. Maybe home was never buildings, Maybe home was you. Streetlights never change, They still shine the way they did. I'm the only thing that's different, Trying not to think of it. Every road I ran from Always led me back to you. Streetlights never change... Only we do. Your picture's still above the stairs, The same smile, frozen there. If I'd known how fast we'd fade, I'd have stayed a little longer. Now the sunset paints these streets Like nothing ever changed. Funny how this little town Still remembers my name. Every shadow on these sidewalks Feels like yesterday. Streetlights never change, They still shine the way they did. I'm the only thing that's different, Trying not to think of it. Every road I ran from Always led me back to you. Streetlights never change... Only we do. If I could steal one summer night, I'd never let it end. Some memories keep burning Long after they should've been. Time keeps moving forward... But part of me stayed here. Streetlights never change, They still shine through every night. Every goodbye leaves a mark You can never leave behind. If tomorrow takes me far away, I'll still carry you. Streetlights never change... Only we do.
