I Keep Coming Back

I told myself gettin' out
That's what this is all about
Sun goes up, sun goes down
You only get one go around
Then I left this town

Then I let that boat carry me
As far as it could carry me
I stood on a mountain free
Found a place where I can breathe in and out
And thought about things that I can't live without

I keep comin' back time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been

'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run, yeah
I keep comin, back

They say the more people change
The more that they stay the same
So I just stopped everything
Thought about all the things
Weighin' me down

Then I threw out old boxes
Emptied my pockets
Of regrets and love letters
Pictures and lockets

And all I have now
Is the truth that I found
Life has a way of just turnin' around
And around, and around

I keep comin' back time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been

'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run, yeah
I keep comin' back

To the town on the hill
So peaceful and still
Where my memories are at, yeah

I keep comin' back time after time
No matter where I'm at
I can't pretend I found something better
Than where I've been

'Cause where I'm from is who I am
And no matter how far that I run
No matter how far
No matter how far that I run, yeah
I keep comin' back

I keep comin' back
I keep comin' back
