Verse
They re not really expecting me
But I know where they hide the key, under the welcome mat
There s no better place than that
Don t know how long I ve been gone
All I know is it s been too long and I m off track
That s why I m coming back
Chorus
When I see the lights of my hometown
I feel like the world stops spinning round
Everything makes sense
Maybe it s the innocence
I know it s just a few miles down the road
I m getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometown
Verse
The static is almost gone
From the station I grew up on
I m getting closer now
So I turn it up real loud
Funny how a little thing like that
Can make it all come rushing back
They say it s not the same
But to me it will never change
Chorus
When I see the lights of my hometown
I feel like the world stops spinning round
Everything makes sense
Maybe it s the innocence
I know it s just a few miles down the road
I m getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometown
Bridge
Though I said goodbye
The best of me still lies
Inside that city limit sign
I know it s just a few miles down the road
I m getting there as fast as I can go
I can always find peace of mind
In the lights of my hometown
