My name ain't someone that they would know But I lived here not that long ago She told me that she loved this little frame house So I saved up some money and put a payment down Right over there in that front porch swing We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two That sure looks like the same ol' door Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before Please, bring her back to me I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone You can go back, but you can't go home I wonder if they'd mind if I wandered around inside I'm feelin' kinda low and it's been such a long long time I'd like to get a good look at what our life used to be But there's one bedroom I can't bear to see Right over there in that front porch swing
We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two That sure looks like the same ol' door Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before Please, bring her back to me I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone You can go back, but you can't go home It's where it started Home, it's where the heart is Home, is where I lost it Home, it's so hard to find again Right over there in that front porch swing We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two Underneath the moon That sure looks like the same ol' door Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before Please, bring her back to me I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone You can go back, but you can't go home Oh, you can go back, but you can't go home
