Comin' home used to feel(my way is still) so good
I'm a stranger now in my neighborhood
I've seen the world at a faster pace
And I'm comin' now from a diff'rent placeThough I may look the same way to you
Underneath there is somebody newI am not the boy next door
I don't belong like I did before
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can't have meI can't go back there anymore
'Cause I am not the boy next doorYou've been savin' (all) those souvenirs,
Faded photographs from my(our) foolish years
We made plans, but they're wearin' thin
And they won't work out 'cause I don't(won't) fit inAnd those mem'ries will just weigh me down
'Cause I got no place to keep 'em uptownI am not the boy next door
I don't belong like I did before
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can't have meI can't go back there anymore
'Cause I am not the boy next doorAnd I'm sorry for just bein' me
But if you'd look past the past you could see
