You Can't Go Back Home - Sylvia

Flew in this morning on the 8-0-5

Had a couple of hours to spare

I wanted to see the hometown again

It'd been years since i was there

A taxi took me by the old grade school

But on the playground there was no sound

Windows boarded up a rusty sign laying on the ground

Drove in front of the movie house where i spent my saturdays

Quarter got ya in back then costed three and a half today

And he stopped by shipleys bakery

But mr shipley had passed away

I got back in the cab i saw that everything had changed

They say you can't go back

Anymore than you can stop the wind from blowing

You can't change the changes going on (going on)

They say you can't go back anymore than you can stop the door from closing

Once you're gone you can't go back home

Taxi pulled up in front of your house

I started to get out

Then i i saw a little boy open the door

I quickly turned around

I told the driver guess theres no one home

I think he understood you've got a plane to catch he said

The drive will do you good

They say you can't go back anymore

Than you can stop the wind from blowing

You can't change the changes going on going on

They say you can't go back anymore

Than you can stop the door from closing

Once you're gone you can't go back home

Once you're gone you can't go back home

Be it ever so humble theres no place like home
