My Hometown

My best friends from home We didn't always get along We liked the same girls Loved the same songs They were right by my side When I didn't make the team So we started a band Began to dream Been thinking about my hometown The memories you feel The people you meet in your hometown Yeah my hometown Mom made sure music was part of our lives Dad made sure that we knew how to fight They taught us the difference between wrong and right Did their best to prepare us for life I don't want to wake up When they are in my dreams When I open my eyes and No ones there A knock on the door The pastor reveals God had taken their son from the field The neighbors would rally And come to their side They shared the same fears And held them so tight Been thinking about my hometown The memories you feel The people you meet in your hometown Yeah my hometown Been thinking about my hometown The memories you feel The people you need in your hometown Yeah my hometown
