lyrics

Running through my old street, where memories play on repeat
Everything just felt so big, back when I was just a kid
Staring back at my old house, haven’t been here in a while
I can see it’s not the same, it never used to look that way

Running through my hometown, living in the past for now
Many of the same old places, except they're filled with different faces
As the page of my life turned, I breathed, I cried and I learned
I grew up right here, it still feels like last year

Running through my old street, with bigger shoes on my feet
Moving through this place disguised, But I see with these same eyes
All the places that we’d go, long ago when life was slow
The sunshine still feels the same, and I can hear you call my name

Running through my hometown, living in the past for now
Many of the same old places, except they're filled with different faces
As the page of my life turned, I breathed, I loved and I learned
I grew up right here, it still feels like last year

Running through my hometown, living in the past for now
I can see it’s not the same, it never used to look that way
