You Can't Go Home Songtext
von Joe Diffie

My name ain′t someone that they would know
But I lived here not that long ago
She told me that she loved this little frame house
So I saved up some money
and put a payment down

(chorus)
Right over there in that front porch swing
We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two
That sure looks like the same ol' door
Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before
Please, bring her back to me
I came lookin′ for a feelin' but the feelin's gone
You can go back, but you can′t go home


I wonder if they′d mind if I wandered around inside
I'm feelin′ kinda low and it's been such a long long time
I′d like to get a good look at what our life used to be
But there's one bedroom I can′t bear to see

(chorus)

It's where it started
Home, it's where the heart is
Home, is where I lost it
Home, it′s so hard to find again

Right over there in that front porch swing
We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two
Underneath the moon
That sure looks like the same ol′ door
Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before
Please, bring her back to me
I came lookin' for a feelin′ but the feelin's gone
You can go back, but you can′t go home

Oh, you can go back, but you can't go home
