Lyrics
When I drove away, you just let me
Like you forgot about the day you met me
And all we'd been through
Apache blue
Meant more to me than it meant to you
It's a real hard lesson to learn
When the prodigal son returns
And there ain't no parade
All your records are shattered
There's new names hanging up in the rafters
Slow down, hometown
Why you gotta move so fast?
Tell me why it feels like I'm the only one lookin' back
Oh, home sweet hometown
I hope that I made you proud
I wish you well
It hurts like hell, but you're somebody else's now
Didn't think you could go on without me
Thought these streets revolved around me
But I outgrew you, couldn't hold me
Never thought that you'd outgrow me, too
Used to think that I hated you
Now, I wonder what I'd be if I stayed with you
Is there any part of me that you take with you?
That you take with you
Slow down, hometown
Why you gotta move so fast?
Tell me why it feels like I'm the only one lookin' back
Oh, home sweet hometown
I hope that I made you proud
I wish you well
It hurts like hell, but you're somebody else's now
The house that I grew up in
Won't ever be home again, no
You never know what you got until you're gone
Truth is, life goes on without me in it
But for just one minute
Won't you slow down hometown?
Why you gotta move so fast?
Tell me why it feels like I'm the only one lookin' back
Oh, home sweet hometown
I hope that I made you proud
I wish you well
It hurts like hell, but you're somebody else's now
Slow down, slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down, slow down
