In your hometown
Seasons are the reasons this winter is as cold as sin
We got bus lines to nowhere & bridges to somewhere
But no one can ever find it
It's just a piece of the part of every dime store bar
And people you don't miss
In a hometown
You can't quit
There's a house on the hill & I remember it still
Well I'm calling just to let you know
That my voice is a lush & I miss your touch
And this place that we once called home
Do you remember the nights when we would run from the sky
With our hair all covered in snow
In a hometown
You can't let go
I grew up at the age of sixteen
With a heart that got the best of me
A wrong from the right
& our lives are just a movie being played out on the screen
Where you play the actress & I am the actor
In a screenplay both of us penned
It had a damn good beginning but I'm always I'm dreading
I'm always dreading the end
It's a love song to the city that takes the piss consistently
& you heard it on the ten o'clock news
It's a song from the sky, but you heard it on high
And you think you're getting the blues
When love is enough to keep from giving up
The feelings you thought you'd lose
In a hometown
You didn't choose
I grew up at the age of sixteen
With a heart that got the best of me
A wrong from the right
& our lives are just a movie being played out on the screen
Where you play the actress & I am the actor
In a screenplay both of us penned
It had a damn good beginning but I'm always I'm dreading
I'm always dreading the end
It's a love song to the city I know will never miss me
Take the highway & the money to spend
Because my voice is a lush & I miss your touch
And I can feel we're dreading the end
When love is enough to keep from giving up
With all the feelings that you thought would bend
In a hometown
You can't mend
It had a damn good beginning but I'm always I'm dreading
I'm always dreading the end
It had a damn good beginning but I'm always I'm dreading
I'm always dreading the end
But with you in my arms well there's never no harm
And I know that we will both make it
But with you in my arms well there's never no harm
And I know that we will both make it
