Mosey down the road thinkin' bout the old
I use to roam this zone with two feet of snow
Right here, this use to be a pizza shop
I've gotten love, I've gotten drunk, I've gotten beat up in that parking lot
I've had my Second Street pride for two decades
These alleyways, and these streetlights have seen my best days
Before I was a scrub learnin how to misbehave,
All the way to the grave, Amesbury is my resting place
Took a right off 110 I'm getting near
But then the road became empty and the people disappeared
The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I was still all alone
No matter where I am, no matter what I do
I'm always coming back home to you
They can leave me for dead they can take away my true
I'm always coming back home to you
Through the lies and the sins that ride the wind that blew
I'm always coming back home to you
As sure as the life in the garden that you grew
I'm always coming back home to you
No matter where I am, no matter what I do
I'm always coming back home to you
If only I had known what you already knew
I'm always coming back home to you
From the heaven I've had to the hell I been through
I'm always coming back home to you
