Mixtape: Who Says You Can’t Go Home by Bon Jovi

I spent 20 years trying to get out of this place
I was looking for something I couldn’t replace;
I was running away from the only thing I’ve ever known.
Like a blind dog without a bone,
I was a gypsy lost in a twilight zone;
I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold.
I been there, done that and I ain’t lookin’ back on the seeds I’ve sown;
Saving dimes, spending too much time on the telephone.
Who says you can’t go home?

Who says you can’t go home?
There’s only one place they call me one of their own.
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling stone…
Who says you can’t go home?
Who says you can’t go back?
Been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There’s only one place left I wanna go…
Who says you can’t go home?

It’s alright, it’s alright.

I went as far as I could, I tried to find a new face,
There isn’t one of these lines that I would erase,
I lived a million miles of memories on that road.
With every step I take I know that I’m not alone.
You take the home from the boy but not the boy from his home;
These are my streets, the only life I’ve ever known.

Who says you can’t go home?

Who says you can’t go home?
There’s only one place they call me one of their own.
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling stone…
Who says you can’t go home?
Who says you can’t go back?
Been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There’s only one place left I wanna go…
Who says you can’t go home?
It’s alright, it’s alright.

I been there, done that and I ain’t looking back.
It’s been a long, long road
Feels like I never left, that’s how the story goes.

It doesn’t matter where you are, it doesn’t matter where you go
If it’s a million miles away or just a mile up the road
Take it in, take it with you when you go.
Who says you can’t go home?

Who says you can’t go home?
There’s only one place they call me one of their own.
Just a hometown boy, born a rolling stone…
Who says you can’t go home?
Who says you can’t go back?
Been all around the world and as a matter of fact
There’s only one place left I wanna go…
Who says you can’t go home?
It’s alright, it’s alright.
