The city that I'm from
It was fun, we were young and dumb
Now we're all grown up
The city that I'm from
I miss the city that I'm from
Markham Ontario, the first place I call home
905 that's what I dial when I call home
My dad picking up the phone ask him how it's going
Same old, no complaints he's just glad it's not snowing
That means the golf course is open, that's his home
Memories on fairways with him I really miss those
Canadian boy got letters in the zip code
Winter cold no watch needed to keep the wrist frozen
Got me thinking bout the early days
The first time I learned to skate
My first funeral when uncle Charlie met the pearly gates
Days we don't worry things
Time moved so slow months felt way longer than 30 days
Instead of scrolling phones, I was turning pages
Instead of burning bridges, I was burning daylight
When late nights were great nights
That was way before I left the nest and had to take flight
Is home where you start
Or is home where you are right now
Is home a place
Or is home a state of mind
Only one way to find out
So I had to fly out
The city that I'm from
It was fun, we were young and dumb
Now we're all grown up
The city that I'm from
I miss the city that I'm from
Los Angeles my second home
First time I visit as a kid I was like ten or so
Child actor working hoping maybe I was next to blow
Knowing that one day I'll have to make the move to get it going
Cause back home there's only so far that I could take it to
Fast forward few years and then we make the move
New room, new house, new school, new route
Same old feelings of nostalgia 'bout my home town
But new memories would soon compete with old ones
Palm trees, calm seas, basking in the gold sun
First kiss, first sip, cracking open cold ones
Burbank was great there's worse places I could grow up
But everything would change as soon as you showed up
Those some feelings of nostalgia start to show up
Damn, got me flustered I'm repeating myself
I see our future, you and me, a family in a house
Is home where we start
Or is home where we are right now
Is home a place
Or is home a state of mind
Only one way to know
So we had to make our own home
The city that I'm from
It was fun, we were young and dumb
Now we're all grown up
The city that I'm from
I miss the city that I'm from
Married for a couple years- time to put our roots down
California living now a days feeling too crowded
Over-priced apartments, paper walls feeling too loud
Damn, feel like an old man, I think it's time to move out
Every month we would drive to see your family out in Vegas
Loved it so it turned into a weekly basis
I knew it was was a problem when the thought of driving back home to Los Angeles would make us anxious
That's when I knew we had to change the address
Pack the couch, pack the rugs, bed frame and mattress
It was a risky thing to do
But as long as I'm with you
Then there's nothing I can lose
So let's go ahead and make it happen
Put the roots down planted the seeds
Build a firm foundation for the family tree
Can't wait to teach our kids to skate, take them golfing
Wasn't sure where home was, I think I finally solved it
Home is not where the roofs are
A home is not a driveway with new cars
Home is not a new start
Home is when I'm too far from everything I know and still feel at home
Cause home is where you are
The city that I'm from
It was fun, we were young and dumb
Now we're all grown up
The city that I'm from
I miss the city that I'm from
