Lyrics
This is the house that I grew up in
These are the friends that I grew up with
This is the place where it all happened
She was a girl I fell in love with
There is the tree that I climbed up in
Closed my eyes and listened to the summer wind
Walked so many times along a stone road
Dreamt of what I’d be like when I grew old
Finally is a word I flaunt
But it’s just a bruise, it’ll soon be gone
We live here and now
So lets take a bow and shine on
I honestly don’t know what went wrong
It’s alright with me, If we just move on
I can let it go
And I hope you know I still care
This is the house that I grew up in
These are the friends that I grew up with
This is the place where it all happened
She was a girl I fell in love with
Took a bus alone to New York City
Stood beside the feet of lady liberty
Saw the city lights atop the empire state
Walked through Central Park until the hour got late
Finally is a word I flaunt
But it’s just a bruise, it’ll soon be gone
We live here and now
So lets take a bow and shine on
I suddenly know where I belong
As the time goes by, my heart’s getting strong
I know who I am
And you’re still my friend take good care
This is the house that I grew up in
These are the friends that I grew up with
This is the place where it all happened
She was a girl I fell in love with
This is the house that I grew up in
These are the friends that I grew up with
This is the place where it all happened
She was a girl I fell in love with
In love with
