Hometown Home

I always hate this part

Every time I'm packing up my car

'Cause saying goodbye is so damn hard

When you live so far away

But I've gotten pretty used to looking in the rearview

At everything that raised me, it just makes me wanna stay

I wish that every time I leave

I could pack up my old street

And all these stars would shine as bright

In the city

I wish that every memory

Could be in my shotgun seat

I could bottle up the place I love

And take it with me

'Cause when it's time to go

Wish I could take my hometown home

I'd take that old street light

That had its glow on all my favorite nights

Back when my whole world was ten blocks wide

Now I swear that l'd

Give anything to bring home more than just a picture in my mind

I wish that every time I leave

I could pack up my old street

And all these stars would shine as bright

In the city

I wish that every memory

Could be in my shotgun seat

I could bottle up the place I love

And take it with me

'Cause when it's time to go

Wish I could take my hometown home

Take my hometown home

I wish somebody told me that my days here would be numbered

'Cause every time I come back now, I just can't help but wonder why

I would ever wanna leave

The place that made me me

But that's growing up

Even though you're never really ready

I wish that every memory

Could be in my shotgun seat

I could bottle up the place I love

And take it with me

'Cause when it's time to go

Wish I could take my hometown home

Wish I could take my hometown home
