You Can't Go Home Lyrics - Joe Diffie

My name ain't someone they would know 

But I lived here not that long ago 

She told me that she loved this little frame house 

So I saved up some money and put a payment down 

Right over there in that front porch swing 

We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two 

That sure looks like the same ol' door 

Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before 

Please, bring her back to me 

I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone 

You can go back but you can't go home 

I wonder if they'd mind if I wandered around inside 

I'm feelin' kinda low and it's been such a long, long time 

I'd like to get a good look at what our life used to be 

But there's one bedroom I can't bear to see 

Right over there in that front porch swing 

We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two 

That sure looks like the same ol' door 

Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before 

Please, bring her back to me 

I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone 

You can go back but you can't go home 

It's where it started 

Home it's where the heart is 

Home is where I lost it 

Home, it's so hard to find again 

Right over there in that front porch swing 

We held hands and we dreamed a dream or two underneath the moon 

That sure looks like the same ol' door 

Where I kissed her goodbye a thousand times before 

Please, bring her back to me 

I came lookin' for a feelin' but the feelin's gone 

You can go back but you can't go home 

Oh, you can go back but you can't go home
