I Go Back Testo

'Jack and Diane' painted a picture of my life and my dreams,
Suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me
Well I heard it today and I
couldn't help but sing along
Cause everytime I hear that song...

I go back to a two-toned short bed Chevy
Drivin my first love out to the levy
Livin life with no sense of time
And I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Every time I hear that song, I go back, I go back

I used to rock all night long to 'Keep On Rockin Me Baby'
Frat parties, college bars, just tryin to impress the ladies
I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along
Cause every time I hear that song....
I Go Back

I go back to the smell of an old gym floor
The taste of salt on the Carolina shore
After graduation and drinkin goodbye to friends
And I go back to watchin summer fade to fall
Growin up too fast and I do recall
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Every time I hear that song, I go back, I go back

We all have a song that somehow stamped our lives
Takes us to another place and time

So I go back to a pew,preacher, and a choir
Singin bout God, brimstone, and fire
And the smell of Sunday chicken after church
And I go back to the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him
Now 'Only The Good Die Young' stops me in my tracks
Every time I hear that song, I go back, I go back

To the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine, I go back
I go back

To watchin summer fade to fall
Growin up too fast and I do recall, I go back
I go back

To the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him, I go back
I go back

(Fades)

I go back, I go back
