G. Michael Peters - You Can Never Go Home Again

I took my first steps there, first time they cut my hair
Learned to ride a bike so I could go anywhere
My parents kept me safe, but they let me get into my share

A high school ring, she made my young heart sing
She was the first to open my eyes to grown-up things
Until I went off to school, in search of what else life might bring

I miss the ocean's smell, those streets I knew so well
Believe it or not I even miss the rain
But they're just memories now, and though I might wonder how
I know you can never go home again

Oh, I still think of you, when I'm feeling blue
I remember every crazy thing we used to do
And I wonder sometimes, did any of your dreams ever come true

On that day I phoned, and left you all alone
Couldn't help myself, I was itching to roam
Ain't it funny how the mind works, we need to travel but we long to be home

I miss the ocean's smell, those streets I knew so well
Believe it or not I even miss the rain
But they're just memories now, and though I might wonder how
I know you can never go home again

Finally found my way home, walked those streets all alone
Lots of things had changed, but nothin' had
And I realized that day, home's just a place in your heart

I miss the ocean's smell, those streets I knew so well
Believe it or not I even miss the rain
But they're just memories now, and though I might wonder how
I know you can never go home again
