lyrics

HOMETOWN
Lisa Bastoni

Your living room is Kelly green
Watching Days of Our Lives on the TV screen
Flowers on the couch and the window shades
I have to stay for dinner
Cause my mom is running late
Waiting by the window
There’s a fence outside
And a burned out house
Covered in vines
And I don’t know if they ever tore it down
Cause I never went back to my hometown
I never went back to my hometown

Your sister comes home from the soccer game
She never stops talking ‘bout what’s-his-name
Your father opens up a second can of beer
And there’s a hole in the wall and it’s always been there
Your mother wipes the table
She’s stacking the plates
And if you ask about the wall
She’ll just look away
Cause some things you don’t say out loud
And I never like to talk about my hometown
Yeah, I don’t want to talk about my hometown

Jewelweeds growing in your backyard
We could stay out there until the sky got dark
Playing flashlight tag and kick the can
You were a boy
But you were my best friend
I can still remember when you moved away
How the grass grew through the gravel
In your old driveway
I wonder how you’re doing now
If you ever made it back to our hometown
If you ever made it back to our hometown
