Verse

Been away from home for too long

Been gone for ten long years.

I don't know if i can slow down

Shift back to that low gear.

Chorus

Its like my old levi jeans

That i have outgrown.

I don't fit in anymore

Homes no longer home.

Verse

I want to fit in but its futile

Those days are a thing of the past.

I tell myself it just takes time

Find a scrapbooks all i have.

Chorus

Its like my old levi jeans

That i have out grown.

I don't fit in anymore.

Homes no longer home.

Verse

Its a slower pace, a laid back life.

Theres no rush to get things done.

Theres no deadline theres no bonus check

Theres no prize to be won.

Chorus

Its like my old levi jeans

That i have outgrown.

I don't fit in anymore

Homes no longer home.

Bridge

So i have a mind ill say hello

Then keep on moving on.

It'll be nice to stop and reminece

But the past is long gone.

V1

Chorus

Hello Carroll,

Nice write, I like concept of returning home after many years.  One thing kept thinking about as I read the lyric is, why was this guy gone for so long.  Was he in prison, was he an over the road trucker, did he strike out to see the world, did just not want to be around his family anymore?   I wonder if  we knew why he was gone might attract more interest.  Good luck and best wishes,

Ha! I had the same thought as Deacon. Kept wondering why the guy (or gal) had left and why he'd been gone for so long.
