I told myself getting out
That's what this is all about
Sun goes up, sun goes down
You only get one go around
Then I left this town
Then I let that boat carry me
As far as it could carry me
I stood on a mountain free
Found a place where I can breath in and out
And thought about things that I can't live without
I keep coming back, time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been
'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run, yeah
I keep coming back
They say, the more people change
The more that they stay the same
So I just stopped everything
Thought about all the things weighing me down
Then I threw out old boxes, emptied my pockets
Of regrets and love letters, pictures and lockets
And all I have now is the truth that I found
Life has a way of just turning around
And around, and around
I keep coming back time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been
'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run, yeah
I keep coming back
To the town on the hill
So peaceful than steel
Where my memories are at, yeah
I keep coming back time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been
'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run
No matter how far
No matter how far that I run
I keep coming back, I keep coming back
I keep coming back
