Torn Down Town Lyrics by Dylan Jakobsen

From Where I Began (artist: Dylan Jakobsen)

2016

They say home don’t always stay the way you want it
You just might find yourself wondering where you are
That same old town that you grew up in seems so different
Back to where you went to school and that first car
And all the street lights they put in just caused the traffic
And every mile down this road’s got 2 more lanes
See that building standing high
That’s where that old Texaco sign used to stand
And we’d fill up on Friday nights
Living in this torn down town
No it ain't like the way I know it
See it now to the way that it once was
Driving ‘round it’s hard to think about what it was like
And all of my time in this torn down town
That old house that you grew up in changed it’s color
And in the carport there’s a car you’ve never seen
Down the street and to the park that you played ball at
Well they ripped up and paved the ground with big machines
Living in this torn down town
No it ain't like the way I know it
See it now to the way that it once was
Driving ‘round it’s hard to think about what it was like
And all of my time in this torn down town
I wish I could
I wish I could
If I could go on back you know I would
I wish I could turn it all back around, In this torn down town
Living in this torn down town
No it ain't like the way I know it
See it now to the way that it once was
Driving ‘round it’s hard to think about what it was like
And all of my time in this torn down town (Yeah all of my time)
Said all of my time in this torn down town
Everything ‘round here’s changing man
This place ain't what it used to be
It’s crazy what a couple years can do
It’s changed this small town and I want it back
