Lyrics

Frost came early on the field this year

You packed up the Civic like you've been planning for years

There ain't much we could say before you walked out the door

Cause I know out there you'd be set for more

I stood in the driveway with my hands in my sleeves

Watched the exhaust curl up into the trees

Told you I'd be fine, and I meant it, I think

But then you'd fade into the dust in just a blink

And this whole town's gonna say you got too good for us

Say you'll come crawling back after acting so tough

But I'll be the one who says

Go on, go on, and don't turn around

There's nothing back here but the same old ground

Ain't nobody mad, we're just proud

And a little bit sad — that's allowed

I'll leave the porch light on, not like I'm waiting

Just so you can find it if the dark gets crazy

Go on, go on, you were made for more than this

But I'm always gonna keep the light on

When homesickness hits

Your mother still asks how you're doing out there

As if I'd know any better than her

But I smile and lie so no one gets hurt

I just wish you'd call to remind us you care

And the guys at the mill say the city'll change ya

Say you'll come home older than your age

I don't try to argue, I don't show up bitter

'Cause I hope it does. I hope you're better

Go on, go on, and don't turn around

There's nothing back here but the same old ground

Ain't nobody mad, we're just proud

And a little bit sad — that's allowed

I'll leave the porch light on, not like I'm waiting

Just so you can find it if the dark gets crazy

Go on, go on, you were made for more than this

But I'm always gonna keep the light on

When homesickness hits

And if it gets too loud the lights crumble down

If you can't find a familiar face in the crowd

It's the same road back, you know the way

You don't call, we have nothing to say

But I hope you don't need to

I hope you never have to

I hope you find somebody who loves you

Like this town never figured out how to

Go on, go on, and don't turn around

There's nothing back here but the same old ground

Ain't nobody mad, we're just proud

And a little bit sad — that's allowed

I'll leave the porch light on, not like I'm waiting

Just so you can find it if the dark gets crazy

Go on, go on, you were made for more than this

But I'm always gonna keep the light on

When homesickness hits

Frost came early on the field this year

I still check the porch when I'm by the rear

Porch light's on, but it's all foregone

Go on
