Have you moved on since I moved out?
Has enough time gone by by now?
Are you better off? Are you doin' fine?
Do I ever run across your mind?
After eighteen summers of growin' up fast
Thought we outgrew each other, I never looked back
But I am who I am 'cause you made me to be
And I wonder if you ever miss me 'cause

I think about you when a summer rain falls
I sing about you when I'm writin' these songs
Didn't forget about you for a minute
I know I hurt you, and it hurts to admit it
I hate that I left you without a goodbye
Would you forgive me, give it one more try?
Do I stand a chance if I ever come back around?
Would you take me back, hometown?

Yeah, I'm sorry, I didn't ever make time to see you
Mama moved out, found it hard to find a reason
Started a family, I'd love you to meet 'em
Yeah, one of these days

I think about you when a summer rain falls
I sing about you when I'm writin' these songs
Didn't forget about you for a minute
I know I hurt you, and it hurts to admit it
I hate that I left you without a goodbye
Would you forgive me, give it one more try?
Do I stand a chance if I ever come back around?
Would you take me back, hometown?
(Take me back, hometown)

Yeah
Does your creek still run?
Are your roads still dirt?
Can you still get found at that little white church?
Do the kids still park down at Lovers Lane?
Yeah, I hope one of us didn't ever change

'Cause I think about you when a summer rain falls
I sing about you when I'm writin' these songs
Ain't forget about you for a minute
I know I hurt you, and it hurts to admit it
I hate that I left you without a goodbye (Goodbye)
Would you forgive me, give it one more try?
Do I stand a chance if I ever come back around?
(Ever come back around)
Would you take me back, hometown?
(Take me back, take me back)
Take me back, hometown (Take me back, take me back)
Hometown
