[00:14.306] I know they say you can't go home again
[00:20.307] I just had to come back one last time
[00:26.259]
[00:27.246] Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam
[00:31.699]
[00:33.0] But these handprints on the front steps are mine
[00:38.300]
[00:38.310] Up those stairs in that little back bedroom
[00:44.300]
[00:45.500] Is where I did my homework
[00:47.600] and I learned to play guitar
[00:50.0] I bet you didn't know under that live oak
[00:57.200] My favorite dog is buried in the yard
[01:01.170]
[01:02.900] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[01:08.120] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[01:13.110]
[01:14.500] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[01:18.200] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[01:22.0]
[01:23.900] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[01:28.600] Won't take nothing but a memory
[01:32.0]
[01:32.900] From the house that built me
[01:38.0]
[01:41.900] Mama cut out pictures of houses for you
[01:46.0]
[01:47.209] From Better Homes and Gardens magazine
[01:51.140]
[01:52.800] Plans were drawn and concrete poured
[01:56.400] Nail by nail and board by board
[02:00.200] Daddy gave life to mama's dream
[02:03.800]
[02:04.189] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[02:09.967]
[02:11.850] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[02:16.159]
[02:16.968] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[02:20.394] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[02:26.289]
[02:26.990] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[02:31.850] Won't take nothing but a memory
[02:34.385] From the house that built me
[02:35.790]
[02:41.260]
[02:43.849] You leave home and you move on
[02:47.376] and you do the best you can
[02:49.849] I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am
[02:58.254] I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
[02:58.368]
[03:03.244]
[03:04.400] This brokenness inside me might start healing
[03:08.994]
[03:10.394] Out here it's like I'm someone else
[03:13.265] I thought that maybe I could find myself
[03:17.749]
[03:19.385] If I could just come in I swear I'll leave
[03:24.265] Won't take nothing but a memory
[03:26.994]
[03:28.195] From the house that built me
