Driving home tonight it's like a ghost town
It's the place that I grew up in
But it's not like I remember
It feels like I'm in someone else's dream
Like it's not really me and I'm not here
Yeah, I know I disappeared
But I didn't wanna leave this town
I didn't wanna settle down
I can't believe I haven't been back here
For seven years now
Feels like I never left
'Cause something in me never did
And all I know is I wanna go
So take me back to
Small town dreams and Friday nights
Shotgun seats and red taillights
Running from the rest of our lives
Like we had time
Sunset sipping on cheap red wine
Friends just staying up all night
These people, they raised me
Yeah, they made me who I am
City life can get a little lonely
And I often find myself
Walking back down these old streets
The consequence of freedom is that you never feel
Like you're home, you don't belong
Yeah and that's when I start running back to
Small town dreams and Friday nights
Shotgun seats and red taillights
Running from the rest of our lives
Like we had time
Sunset sipping on cheap red wine
Friends just staying up all night
These people, they raised me
Yeah, they made me who I am
But the clock is ticking I been waiting wishing
To come back here and turn it around
And replay the memories
Yeah, the ones that made me
Who I am right now
But I didn't wanna leave this town
But I didn't wanna settle down
And I can't believe
I haven't been back here
For seven years now
Feels like I never left
'Cause something in me never did
And all I know is I wanna go
So take me back to
Small town dreams and Friday nights
Shotgun seats and red taillights
Running from the rest of our lives
Like we had time
Sunset sipping on cheap red wine
Friends just staying up all night
These people, they raised me
Yeah, they made me who I am
Wanna go home and see my momma
Wanna be with the ones I love and
Back to the place where I grew up in
That made me who I am
Wanna watch the sunset up the hill
Wanna be somewhere time stands still
Back to the place that I grew up in
That made me who I am
