Wonder Why You Ever Go Home Lyrics - Jimmy Buffett

Years grow shorter, not longer 

The more you've been on your own 

Feelin's for movin' grow stronger 

So you wonder why you ever go home 

Wonder why you ever go home 

People are movin' so quickly 

Humor's in need of repair 

Same occupations and same obligations 

They've really got nothin' to share 

Like drivin' around with no spare 

River gets deeper, not shallow 

Further you move down the stream 

Wonderin' if I can keep her 

As I race to catch up with my dreams 

How they shine and glitter and gleam

You wonder why you ever go home
