Verse
We were passing through my hometown
Thought I'd stop and show my wife around
It's been 20 years since I'd been home
Walked around the old town square
The courthouse clock still ticking there
My heart sank to see the movie house was gone, but

Chorus
If I'd stayed
Around this town
I wouldn't have the woman that I have now
The career, the house, or kids, and
If I'd stayed
I'd be just another guy
Hanging on a wish for a brand new life
I wouldn't even know myself today
If I'd stayed

Verse
Thought we'd go and have a couple brews
Catch up on all the local news
Down at Joe's Bar on the edge of town
Ran into a highschool friend
Reconnected to my past again
Talked about the different lives we found

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Sometimes I crave the comfort of places I've known
Appreciating what I have now and what I've outgrown

Tag
If I'd stayed
I'd be just another guy
Hanging on a wish for a brand new life
I wouldn't even know myself today
If I'd stayed
If I’d stayed
Oh, if I’d stayed
If I’d stayed
