dylan owen - pins on my map lyrics

[intro]
(“kind of remember those things…”)
you were the pins on my map
thanks for bringing me back

[verse 1]
thanks for the ride home tonight
it’s bringing me back
thanks for the ride, and for bringing me back
i was worried when i’d visit at last
it’d be different
but the same infinite sadness
still covers everything
still fills in the blanks
and all the places we lived in the past
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
(thanks for giving me that!)
by now i’ve seen every back road
seen every landmark, every national park
i’ve seen every sunset, seen every baseball field
every evergreen we have in our hearts
and nothing
makes my hope swell
yeah nothing
feels the way that home felt
i’ve seen sleepy towns become hotels
we fall with the ghosts of our old selves
i’ve seen the diners empty
as they slow their rounds
i’ve seen the college bars
they’re all closing down
it’s almost time we could read our closing lines
and tell each other what our lives have been all about
i don’t know the cost, but it pays to find
worse than the worst times were the wasted times
everything good’s always gotta change in time
so i will keep you in this suitcase of mine
[chorus]
i’ll always come back home to where the places don’t change
i tell you i love you below the gas station rain
and the old baseball diamond where the sands of time wait
i’ll always come back home to where the places don’t change
yeah i’ll always come back home
i’ll always come back home

[verse 2]
thanks for the ride home tonight, it’s bringing me back
thanks for the ride, and for bringing me back
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
(thanks for giving me that!)
but now i’ve seen every satellite
seen every telescope
seen every view of the planet and stars
i’ve seen every angle of the universe
and none of em compare to the one out of our backyard
through all the life treasures and human fears
and bright questions of what i’m doing here
i haven’t kept much of happiness through the years
but i held onto you like a souvenir
we made a pact that we’d visit all the great lakes
and touch em each once, as our hands shake
i’ll leave the moon with this phase of mine
but together we go deeper than all the great lakes combined
the cost is priceless but it pays to find
worse than the worst times are the wasted times
the places remain, but those days are gone
and everything good’s gotta change…
[chorus]
i’ll always come back home to where the places don’t change
i tell you i love you below the gas station rain
and the old baseball diamond where the sands of time wait
i’ll always come back home to where the places don’t change
yeah i’ll always come back home
i’ll always come back home

[bridge]
another rainstorm coming down
another iceberg in my way
another landslide falling out
another friendship i can’t save
another night spent staring up
at the ceiling as it caves in i say
i’ll always come back home
i’ll always come back home

[outro]
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
when i was lost and i had no one sticking with me
you were the pins on my map
thanks for bringing me back
