lyrics

You remind me of my hometown / In your faded yellow dress
You got the easy laugh the tourists get / In their lazy Summer sweat
And on a clear, clear day / The cool mountain lake
Steals the sunlight, like diamonds / Till it shimmers and shines
And when the sun is sinking down / You get that glimmer in your eye
You remind me of my hometown / The one I left behind

You remind me of my high school / At the homecoming game
Cause you sound just like a marching band …my name
You got the first down cheer / You got the winning play
You got the cool kid sneer / When you don't get your way
And when you tease me like you do / I know why I said goodbye
You remind me of my high school / The one I left behind

Now I'm a long, long way from home
I've been putting the miles and years in between
But now everywhere I go
I see a little bit of my town / In everyone I know

Now I'm a long, long way from home
I've been putting the miles and years in between
But now everywhere I go
I see a little bit of my town / In everyone I know

You remind me of the old me / The one I left behind
Always looking for a way out / Looking for a place to hide
You say that you don't care / But I know you're scared
That this small town small life / Is all you'll ever find
That's the way I used to be / And I can see it in your eyes
You remind me of the old me
The one I left behind
