I know they say you can't go home again

I just had to come back one last time

Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam

But these hand prints on the front steps are mine

Up those stairs in that little back bedroom

Is where they did their homework and learned to play guitar

And I bet you didn't know underneath that live oak

My favorite dog is buried in the yard

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it

This brokenness inside me might start healing

Out here it's like I'm someone else

I thought that maybe I could find myself

If I could just come in I swear I'll leave

Won't take nothing but a memory

From the house that built me

Mama cut out pictures of houses for years

From Better Homes and Garden magazines

Plans were drawn and concrete poured

Nail-by-nail and board-by-board

But once the kids were grown it was just too much for me

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it

This brokenness inside me might start healing

Out here it's like I'm someone else

I thought that maybe I could find myself again

If I could just come in I swear I'll leave

I won't take nothing but a memory

From the house that built me

They leave home they move on and you do the best you can

I got lost in this ol' world and forgot who I am

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it

This brokenness inside me might start healing

Out here it's like I'm someone else

I thought that maybe I could find myself

Ma'am if I could walk around I swear I'll leave

Won't take nothing but a memory

From the house that built me
