You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
I used to ride my back
Down the old country road
All across the creek
To a meadow of gold
I fly my kite
In the summer breeze
Or at the edge of the field
Lie under some trees
You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
Time changes all things
Like the clouds up in the sky
Everything living
Has a time to die
Keep those close
That mean so much to you
And to your friends
Always be true
You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
Time changes all things
Like the clouds up in the sky
Everything living has a time to die
Keep those close
It means so much to you
And to your friends
Always be true
You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
You can go back home
But you can't go back
Everything changes and that's a fact
You can go back home
But you can't back to then
