Lyrics

Hometown

We tried our best
But no, I had to leave
She said you're making sense
Take care of your brother
Keep him from the cold
And you can go, never know
If you never try then you'll never know
That we were
We were
Cos we have it all figured out
And we have it all figured
Cos we have it all figured out
And we have it all figured
We will never walk alone
We will stumble over bridges
Trying hard to get home
Take your time the roads are awfully cold
She said I'm growing old
Take care of your brother
Keep him nice and warm
And you can go, never know
If you never try then you'll never know
That we were
We were
Cos we have it all figured out
And we have it all figured
Cos we have it all figured out
And we have it all figured
We will never walk alone
We will stumble over bridges
Trying hard to get home
Down at the water
I can't remember
We were just talking
About how we never grew up in our hometown
Down at the water
I can't remember
We were just talking
About how we never grew up in our hometown
Down at the water
I can't remember
We were just talking
We will never walk alone
We will stumble over bridges
Trying hard to get home
And I will blindly throw my faith
Into the next thing that comes my way
Trying hard to get home
Down at the water
I can't remember
We were just talking
About how we never grew up in our hometown
Down at the water
I can't remember
We were just talking
About how we never grew up in our hometown
Never grew up in our hometown
