Lyrics

Verse 1

I took the turn without thinking

I still remember where it goes

Past the sign beside the entrance

And the place we used to go

I pulled into the parking lot

Sat there for a minute or two

It’s funny what you still remember

After all the years you’ve been through

The paint’s a different color

They’ve moved a couple things around

But I knew exactly where I was

Before I even slowed down

Pre-Chorus

I haven’t been here in forever

Didn’t think I’d miss it much

But every corner’s got a story

And I remember every one

Chorus

It’s all still here

Every moment, every year

All the things I thought I’d forgotten

Come back when I get near

And I can almost hear us laughing

Like we never went away

It’s been so long since I’ve been back

But it feels like yesterday

Yeah, it’s all still here

Somewhere in this place

Post-Chorus

Still here

Still here

Verse 2

I walked around the old familiar spots

Found the place where we would sit

Remembered conversations

That I hadn’t thought about since

I wonder where they all ended up

The people I knew back then

Some I haven’t talked to in years

Some I’ll probably never see again

I passed the spot where we took pictures

And I remembered that whole day

Someone made a joke I can’t recall

But I remember laughing anyway

Pre-Chorus

I haven’t been here in forever

And I know it’s not the same

But there’s something about coming back

That brings it all my way

Chorus

It’s all still here

Every moment, every year

All the things I thought I’d forgotten

Come back when I get near

And I can almost hear us laughing

Like we never went away

It’s been so long since I’ve been back

But it feels like yesterday

Yeah, it’s all still here

Somewhere in this place

Instrumental

Bridge

I thought about calling somebody

Just to tell them where I’d been

But I couldn’t think of what to say

Or where I’d even begin

I stayed a little longer

Than I planned to when I came

I guess I wanted one more minute

Before I drove away

Final Chorus

It’s all still here

Every moment, every year

All the things I thought I’d forgotten

Come back when I get near

And I can almost hear us laughing

Like we never went away

It’s been so long since I’ve been back

But it feels like yesterday

Yeah, it’s all still here

Somewhere in this place

Outro

I took the turn without thinking

Funny how I still know the way
