[Verse 1]
Got a view from here of a whole entire city
But I don't feel anything at all
I get caught up in the new life that I'm living
I need someone who reminds me where I'm from
'Cause

[Pre-Chorus]
We were just kids back then
Hometown, had a party in the basement
We were just on the edge of the whole world
So close you could taste it
I remember our favorite song
Playing in the bar while we sang along
Dreaming of our future love

[Chorus]
We'd stay up late
Everyone at my place
Crashing in the hallway
Calling it home
I've got that hot mess
Small town on my mind, guess
I'm missing those nights
In this city alone
Baby, take me home
Ooh, ah, ah, ah
Ooh, baby, take me home
Ooh, ah, ah, ah
Ooh, baby, take me home

[Verse 2]
All the best times went by in a moment
And these bright lights start to feel at home
But there's a place that raised me to believe in
All my dreams and now I'm thinking of
When

[Pre-Chorus]
We were just kids back then
Hometown, had a party in the basement
We were just on the edge of the whole world
So close you could taste it
I remember our favorite song
Playing in the bar while we sang along
Dreaming of our future love

[Chorus]
We'd stay up late
Everyone at my place
Crashing in the hallway
Calling it home
I've got that hot mess
Small town on my mind, guess
I'm missing those nights
In this city alone
Baby, take me home
Ooh, ah, ah, ah
Ooh, baby, take me home
Ooh, ah, ah, ah
Ooh, baby, take me home
