They say you can't go back Well i guess there's some truth in those words As a matter of fact, one of the lesson I've learned When you grow up in a small town like I did It gets buried in your blood and your bones & Keeping your two feet firmly on the ground & Always knowing how to get home Woah, I never really left It's here inside the heart that's beating in my chest & That's why, wherever I run or how far up this mountain I get It'll always be like I never left Girl I'm way overdue For a walk down maint street with you Where we first met & Where you said I do too Where I felt your lips and it changed my life But somebody turned on a light I swear on my soul I still feel the same way everytime I'm kissing you goodnight Woah, I never really left It's here inside the heart that's beating in my chest & That's why, wherever I run or how far up this mountain I get It'll always be like I never left Well my roots run deep as that old oak tree I climbed up in as a child Staring out across the river Dreaming about getting to the other side Woah, I never really left It's here inside the heart that's beating in my chest & That's why, wherever I run or how far up this mountain I get Wherever I lay my head, it'll always be like I never left Like I never left
