I Just Drove By

I always go the other way but my car drove me down today

To a little house on the older side of town

Back when things were never hard I used to play there in that yard

And I just drove by to see if things had changed

Cokes were just a nickel then and across the street at the five and ten

A lot of things were cheap and square and strange

And the life that we had might have been but it was one we loved believin' in

And I just drove by to see if things had changed

I wondered now if love is still the way it was back then

I need to know that life is still a place worth livin' in

There it is just like it was a place where there was always love

And I just drove by to see if things had changed

In a world that seen it's better days it's good to know some things remain the same

Though standing still is not times way

Take to heart while in it's spring oh love is just a fragile thing

And I just drove by to see if things had changed

I wondered now if love is still...

I just drove by to see if things had changed
