| Twenty years goes by fast
|
| I know they say you can’t live in the past
|
| Well 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
|
| Well 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
|
| 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
|
| Well I blew 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
|
| No one there even knows my name
|
| Even the memories don’t seem the same
|
| I’m a stranger, stranger in my own hometown
|
| 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
