Linda Davis - The Boy Back Home Lyrics

The first time she saw him he stood at home plate He knocked that curve ball almost out of state The crowd went wild He kinda smiled And her heart melted away The last time she saw him was at the airport gate He'd write from college every other day Letters sent With good intent But the miles got in the way She tried to fall again And every now and then she got real close But it never worked out right And with every sad goodbye her mind goes to The boy back home And their favorite song And more shining stars than a girl could wish upon Where there were no dreams Out of reach She'd go anywhere to find the boy back home She drove last weekend to the old home town Their favorite soda shop had been torn down The drive-in's gone And her heart longs For a place that can't be found And in the hours spent In youthful innocence Safe in the arms of The boy back home And their favorite song And more shining stars than a girl could wish upon Where there were no dreams Out of reach She'd go anywhere to find the boy back home Linda Davis Lyrics The Boy Back Home Lyrics
