Summer breeze, voices in the night
Laughing with friends under midnight light
Morning glow, colors of fall
Eagles above - I thought I had it all

Looking back, it all comes alive
The good times, the laughter, the love in my life
Seasons may fade, but the memories remain
The perfect place was the one I left behind
The perfect place was the one I left behind

Empty streets don't feel like home
Every crowd still leaves me alone
Children playing, winter's snow
Flowers blooming where my roots used to grow

Looking back, it all comes alive
The good times, the laughter, the love in my life
Seasons may fade, but the memories remain
The perfect place was the one I left behind
The perfect place was the one I left behind

If I could turn the hands of time
I'd trade these miles for what was mine
The echoes call from every wall
And the place I left was the best of all

Looking back, it all comes alive
The good times, the laughter, the love in my life
Seasons may fade, but the memories remain
The perfect place was the one I left behind
The perfect place was the one I left behind
The place I left... was always mine
