  S1:
  I know they say you can't go home again 

  I just had to come back one last time 

  Ma'am, I know you don't know me from Adam 

  But these hand prints on the front steps are mine

  S2:
  Up those stairs in that little back bedroom 

  Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar 

  And I bet you didn't know under that live oak 

  My favorite dog is buried in the yard

  R1:
  I thought if I could touch this place or feel it 

  This brokenness inside me might start healing 

  Out here it's like I'm someone else 

  I thought that maybe I could find myself

  R2:
  If I could just come in I swear I'll leave 

  Won't take nothin' but a memory 

  From the house that built me

  S3:
  Momma cut out pictures of houses for years 

  From better homes and garden magazine 

  Plans were drawn and concrete poured and nail by nail and board by board 

  Daddy gave life to momma's dream

  You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can 

  I got lost in this 'ole world and forgot who I am
