It's kind of bittersweet
Never thought I'd come back
It's been a while since I
Packed up my things and left
I recall it still
In my beat-up truck
I didn't look back
Didn't give a
I got my first real kiss
Behind the coffee shop
Thought he was the one
Until we broke it off
I recall it still
In his beat-up truck
I cried like hell
Then I told him off
For I would never come back to this town, but
Now I'm here once again, and things that I forgot
Just keep flooding by the memories that I made up
Damn, my heart still beats for the place where I grew up
I worked that later shift
At the local bar
But said I'll make it big
Said I'd quit this job
I recall it still
Yeah, just like that
I walked out that door
And never looked back
For I would never come back to this town, but
Now I'm here once again, and things that I forgot
Just keep flooding by the memories that I made up
Damn, my heart still beats for the place where I grew up
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
I recall it still
In my beat-up truck
I didn't look back
Didn't give a
Swore I would never come back to this town, but
Now I'm here once again, and things that I forgot
Just keep flooding by the memories that I made up
Damn, my heart still beats for the place where I grew up
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
Damn, damn, damn, damn, ooh-oh yeah
My heart still beats for the place where I grew up
Damn, my heart still beats for the place where I grew up
