Story behind the song
Loosing a loved one - change - you can't go back, but sure can remember.
Lyrics
Standing on the front porch one last time
Sun winding through the arms of that yellow pine
Draw in a deep breath as I open up the door
Shadows from my childhood stretched across the floor
In my home place
Blue dusty vase still sitting on the window sill
Hasn’t held Mama’s roses in nearly fifteen years
A ring on the old wood stove should hold a pot of beans
And the quilt in the rocker shared a baby’s dreams
In my home place
My home place
How do I say goodbye to Daddy’s land?
And drop the key in some stranger’s hand
He’s gone now like that auction gavel ringing
But stories, they keep singing to me
I hammer down the sign saying that its sold
I hope these new folks know it’s memory is old
This house still lives and breathes of family and love
Funny how the posts and beams hold memories of
My home place
My home place
How do I say goodbye to Daddy’s land?
And drop the key in some stranger’s hand
How do I carry this last box of lifetime through the door?
The old place won’t be home anymore
Standing on the front porch one last time
Of my home place
My home place
