lyrics

Lying awake with the thinking of when
The people and places i won't see again
The pain i can hide, but i can't pretend
I can ever go home again

Thinking of the days of summer we spent
The jubilant cry of the innocent
The summer came and the summer went
we can never go home again

You can never go home again
You can never go home again

The face of a memory the sound of a ghost
Talk of the child that they loved the most
Of whom mother would always boast
You can never go home again

Fear of the endless specter of pain
Love gone to waste, a heart down the drain
Give it all up and still feel the same
you can never go home again

You can never go home again
You can never go home again

The love that changed you from boy to man
Left an empty space you can't understand
Nothing ever goes according to plan
You can never go home again

The mounting fear of the stunning because
That what will be won't be how it was
We'll just have to wait and see what it does
You can never go home again

You can never go home again
You can never go home again

Nothing to do no place to go
All of the thing I didn't know
How could I know

You can never go home again
You can never go home again

The fathers and mothers who worked too fast
Fought too hard and couldn't make it last
Now theirs dreams are a thing of the past
They can never go home again

You can never go home again
