My Own Hometown

20 years goes by fast

I know, they say you can't live in the past

But I came back here to find what's left of me

So I walked the halls of our old high school

Sat alone in the church where I met you

Drove by the bank where your house used to be

Oh, I'm a stranger in my own hometown

Nothing much of me left here now

I can't find a trace of me and you, oh-oh-oh

No one here even knows my name

Even the memories don't seem the same

I'm a stranger, stranger in my own hometown

Went to the diner where we said goodbye

Just to see if it would make me cry

But I just drank my coffee, feeling empty

Then I flew past that city limit sign

Population that left me behind

Wishing there was someone there who missed me

Wished they missed me

Well, I'm a stranger in my own hometown

Nothing much of me left there now

I can't find a trace of me and you, oh-oh-oh

No one there even knows my name

Even the memories don't seem the same

I'm a stranger, stranger in my own hometown

Oh-oh, no one there even knows my name

Even the memories don't seem the same

I'm a stranger, stranger in my own hometown

Yeah, I'm a stranger, stranger in my own hometown

That used to be where I belonged

Guess time and you and I moved on
