The hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, is over, is over, is over

Down by the water
Where the auburn leaves were shinin'
Holding hands with my father
And I swear I saw him crying

'Cause it's been so long
And the day's soon gone

And the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, hm
And all the paths are overgrown
Thе Sun is down, it's getting colder
And evеrything you've ever known
Is over, is over

In your eyes, I see the fire
That so long ago was burnin'
Through our smiles, we tried to hide it
All the years that we've been hurtin'

We don't get too long
That's why I'm holdin' on

And the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, hm
And all the paths are overgrown
The Sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known
Is over, is over, is over, is over
Is over, is over

Yeah, the hardest part of going home
Is facing that you're getting older
And everything you've ever known
Is over, is over
And all the paths are overgrown
The Sun is down, it's getting colder
And everything you've ever known
Is over, is over, is over, is over
