Hometown Lyrics by Indy
[Verse 1]
I go back to it
My old suburbia once or twice in a year
I know you'll be there
And you'll come to my parents' house
They know you by name
They're sayin', "It's been so long"
We slip out of the house, we start foolin' around
Like we did when we were young
[Pre-Chorus]
At nineteen, we haunted streets that we knew so well
I cut my feet on the love and the lust I felt
[Chorus]
Stuck in the quiet of my hometown
You're wonderin' if we'll go back to bein' friends
I just stay quiet so you know now
That if I could, you know I'd do it all again
I gave you all of my midnights
But baby, now that it's daytime
You are stuck in the quiet of my hometown
I have to go now
[Verse 2]
Every time I go
You won't drive me to the airport
You say that you'll write and I swear that I'll call
But I don't know what for
When I land in the city
In the cab, I can taste you still
Conversations we made
It's been stainin' my days
Things that I didn't say
[Chorus]
Stuck in the quiet of my hometown
You're wonderin' if we'll go back to bein' friends
I just stay quiet so you know now
That if I could, you know I'd do it all again
I gave you all of my midnights
But baby, now that it's daytime
You are stuck in the quiet of my hometown
I have to go now
[Bridge]
(I gave you all of my midnights)
(Baby, now that it's daytime)
(I gave you all—)
Underneath the cyprus trees
I can see you in my dreams (See you in my dreams)
The way that you're sayin' my name
Kind of makes me want to stay (Want to stay)
[Chorus]
Stuck in the quiet of my hometown
So maybe finally, we'll be more than friends
We both get quiet 'cause we know now
That if I tried, I'd stay here with all the ends
I gave you all of my midnights
But baby, now that it's daytime
You are stuck in the quiet of my hometown
I have to go now
[Outro]
Stuck in the quiet of my hometown (I have to go now)
Underneath the cyprus trees
I can see you in my dreams (I have to—)
I just stay quiet so you know now (I have to go now)
The way that you're sayin' my name
Kind of makes me want to stay (I have—)
At nineteen, we haunted streets that we knew so well
