[00:19.410] I know they say you can't go home again
[00:25.410] I just had to come back one last time
[00:30.590]
[00:32.350] Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam
[00:36.710]
[00:38.100] But these handprints on the front steps are mine
[00:42.590]
[00:43.410] Up those stairs in that little back bedroom
[00:48.770]
[00:49.790] Is where I did my homework
[00:52.160] and I learned to play guitar
[00:55.100] I bet you didn't know under that live oak
[01:02.450] My favorite dog is buried in the yard
[01:06.870]
[01:08.330] I thought if I could touch this place so feel it
[01:13.820] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[01:18.810]
[01:20.200] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[01:23.750] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[01:27.550]
[01:29.630] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[01:34.360] Won't take nothing but a memory
[01:37.850]
[01:38.390] From the house that built me
[01:43.940]
[01:47.390] Mama cut out pictures of houses for you
[01:52.120]
[01:53.510] From Better Homes and Gardens magazine
[01:57.440]
[01:58.830] Plans were drawn and concrete poured
[02:01.890] Nail by nail and board by board
[02:06.320] Daddy gave life to mama's dream
[02:09.380]
[02:10.140] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[02:15.940]
[02:17.130] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[02:21.870]
[02:22.940] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[02:26.700] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[02:30.110]
[02:31.810] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[02:37.130] Won't take nothing but a memory
[02:39.990]
[02:40.690] From the house that built me
[02:46.170]
[02:49.750] You leave home and you move on
[02:53.070] and you do the best you can
[02:55.750] I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am
[03:03.180]
[03:04.560] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[03:09.550]
[03:10.310] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[03:15.300]
[03:17.300] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[03:20.170] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[03:24.340]
[03:26.290] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[03:31.170] Won't take nothing but a memory
[03:33.900]
[03:35.100] From the house that built me
