    He left his hometown and came back for a visit. But like they say it's gone with the wind and nowhere to be found except down the backroads of his mind. Very original.

    Story Behind the Song
    Everybody tries to go back home again but
    this version says, Oh yeah, you can go back
    and see some of the old sites but oh so much has changed that it won't ever be the same.

    Lyrics
    I WAS ALMOST HOME AGAIN
    C1986 Louis Brown/Gordon Dillingham

    I see the old school we used to go to
    On that old ballfield you cheered for us to
    win
    By that closed down Dairy Queen
    We talked out all our dreams...
    I just came by to see the place again....

    There's your old house so dark and empty
    The broken mailbox rusting in the rain
    The paints peeled off the siding
    That old kudzu vine's not hiding
    I saw your face smile thru the window pane

    FOR A MOMENT, I WAS ALMOST HOME AGAIN
    I CAME SO CLOSE TO GOING WHERE NO MAN'S EVER BEEN...
    I CAN SEE IT ALL SO CLEAR
    AND THOUGH YOU CAN'T GET THERE FROM HERE
    FOR A MOMENT I WAS ALMOST HOME AGAIN

    There's the drive-in we fell in love in
    There's the old bus stop where leaving you
    was hell
    A lonely sweetness still
    Hangs over lover's hill
    Oh the backroad of my memory's paved so well

    CHORUS
