They're not really expecting me
But I know where they hide the key
Under the welcome mat
There's no better place than thatDon't know how long I've been gone
All I know is it's been too long
And I'm off track
That's why I'm coming backWhen I see the lights of my hometown
I feel like the world stops spinning 'round
Everything makes sense
Maybe it's the innocenceI know it's just a few miles down the road
Getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometownThe static is almost gone
From the station I grew up on
I'm getting closer now
So I turn it up real loudFunny how a little thing like that
Can make it all come rushing back
They say it's not the same
But to me it will never change'Cause when I see the lights of my hometown
I feel like the world stops spinning 'round
Everything makes sense
Maybe it's the innocenceI know it's just a few miles down the road
I'm getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometownAnd though I've said goodbye
The best of me still lies inside
That city limit signI know it's just a few miles down the road
I'm getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometown, my hometown
