[Verse]
City lights don't warm the soul
Streets are cold and take their toll
Memories of what could've been
Missing days when we were kin
[Verse]
Paper thin this old veneer
Cracked and tired worn by years
Could've danced on sparklin' floor
Now just echoes through the door
[Chorus]
Wandering back home in my mind
Searching faces I can't find
Every alley every stone
Wishing I was not alone
[Verse]
In the park where children play
Ghostly laughter fades away
Once a father standing proud
Now just blend into the crowd
[Bridge]
Every step's a tale untold
Whispers of young days of gold
Could've held you one more time
Lost in endless uphill climb
[Chorus]
Wandering back home in my mind
Searching faces I can't find
Every alley every stone
Wishing I was not alone
[Chorus]
Wandering back home in my mind
Searching faces I can't find
Every alley every stone
Wishing I was not alone
Could've danced on sparklin' floor
Now just echoes through the door
