When Was The Last Time You Were Home? Lyrics by Paul Spring

River Flows Two Ways

2023

[Verse 1]
\nTaking a ride down Veteran's Drive
\nI know every block as it blurs by
\nI could do it with my eyes closed
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nIt's a simpler place from a simpler time
\nThere were kids my age, at least close to my age
\nWe could play outside on our own
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nRed oak trees, potholed streets
\nWater tower, grocery meats
\nThe sound of the dial tone
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Verse 4]
\nThere's the Dairy Queen where I had my first job
\nWhere I sold my first gun, took my first drugs
\nWe were 15 or 16 years old, she was twisting cones
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Verse 5]
\nOr underneath the bridge by the riverside
\nWhere those vampires lured a drifter within
\nAnd they cracked his skull with a stone
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Verse 6]
\nOr the monastery nursing floor
\nWhere they hide the monks no one wants to know
\nWhere they stole the youth of those poor souls
\n
\n[Refrain]
\nWhen was the last time you were home?
\n
\n[Outro]
\nFirst place I go is that shoreline
\nWhere they don't build houses and don't allow boats
\nAnd I hold my breath under water for a while\n\n
