Where Home Used To Be Lyrics - Marshall Crenshaw

I had to see for myself 

I had to show it to you 

Among my sweetest of memories 

I see this place in more than a few, yeah 

 

Familiar shadows remain 

But they are all that's unchanged 

Because this whole street seems haunted now 

And the atmosphere is still and strange 

 

We didn't worry about much 

We never had a spare dime 

This is where home used to be 

In a different time 

 

I know it?s hard to believe 

So much has turned to dust, yeah, yeah 

But this is where home used to be 

And it was good to us, more than good to us 

 

This was our place in the world 

When life was new and untried 

When every wild dream seemed possible 

It felt good to be here, it was warm inside, yeah 

 

I have to say, I'm amazed 

Even though I learned long ago 

That sometimes good things get thrown away 

I wish right now that it wasn't so 

 

Those days are good and gone 

Around here it?s plain enough, yeah, yeah 

This is where home used to be 

Where we lived and loved 

 

We were only here for awhile 

Then we got drawn away, yeah, yeah 

But this is where home used to be 

And I pray that it'll see a better day 

 

We didn't worry back then 

We never had a spare dime 

This is where home used to be 

In a different time 

 

I know it?s hard to believe 

So much has turned to dust, yeah, yeah 

But this is where home used to be 

And it was good to us, more than good to us 

 

I had to see for myself 

I had to show it to you
