- I returned to my hometown yesterday
and my life before my eyes came flashing back
Everything was changed and the faces look so strange
sometimes I wish that I was young again
CHORUS
And if I close my eyes think on back to happy times
I could be 16 years old for awhile
Honest friendships, high school dances innocence short romances
Life was simple but it sure was good somehow
Then we drove to an old beach last night
a place we used to go not long ago
Walking barefoot in the sand
I saw to people holding hands
Falling in love for their first time
CHORUS
Now I'm older I guess a little wiser
experience is added to my name
But I can't help but feel that I traded apart who I am along the way
CHORUS twice

as a newfoundlander who loved this song since i first heard it many many years ago. this hits different, I'm 30 years old now. all my friends and i have moved different places, got married, started families and barely see each other. this song truly hits home.
This song reminds me the best times I had in Newfoundland. I am Italian and I spent three amazing months in this country. I had a lot of friends and a lot of fantastic memories. I have been schreeced too. I am proud to have been in Newfoundland. I miss this land
That's great!! Hopefully you can visit here once covid is over again
I was stationed there with the US Air Force at Goose Bay air base in Labrador. I was "Screeched" in as well, kissed a codfish and ate canned bear meat on Ritz crackers from the Hudson Bay store. It was an isolated tour of duty so my family missed out on all the fun. I would go back if given half a chance, yah noo?
I was in alberta for 14 years , and found out my true love was still single , I moved home over 3 years ago , and now we are gettin married !!! was the best move I ever made !!!!!! , we all come home !!!!! love the music , love the people !!
this is my Favorite Newfie song. I keep on thinking that i wanna leave to alberta, but its impossible when i listen to all these songs and think of all the GREAT memories that i have here with all my friends !
Long Live Newfoundlanders ! Best people in the world !!
I am literally crying while listening this, no matter for which country this song is, but the words and emotions are same for me.
Beautiful Saturday here in CBS and this song got me out in the shed with the bike started and I'm gone in the woods for a boil up! Wooooo
Just heard this from a Newfoundlander's playlist (I'm a Nova Scotian) - how was this not all over the Canadian and U. S. playlists? Smashing.
Hey Ross , I had the same thoughts exactly about this song!! Strange it didn't do a lot better.
There’s plenty of Newfoundland music like that
Just went back to the rock for 10 days and want to go right back again.. sitting on my deck now listening to music from home and feeling a little homesick!
I just recently turned sixteen. I'm going to cherish every moment.
Damn you must be 24 or something now haha. I turned 16 a few months ago and has been great so far!! Also will definitely cherish every moment as I hope you did. :)
@@maxeyre2024 oh my gosh, wow. Thank you for replying to my comment from 8 years ago! Can't believe it.
Enjoy your teen years because one day you'll wake up to be 24 and wonder what happened. I sound like my Dad haha. I appreciate your comment
Kenny Power Wow! I think you’re the first person who’s replied back to a comment they originally made over five years ago. Hope you’re doing well and I absolutely will live life to the Max. :)
@@Kennuckle1 hey power
@@guessowii ?
LIVING IN THE USA BUT STILL A NEWFIE AT HEART
been in AB for 13 years now. Can't wait to go back home again in August :D
I live in Newfoundland and even if I go on a one week trip I can wait to get home!!!
Everybody is different. Speaking for myself, being a teenager was pretty miserable. Each year since then has been better and better. Sure I have a few more aches and pains since then, but I also have a girlfriend, a real job, and prospects for the future. Most importantly, I can pick and choose the people I hang out with. You don't have a choice who your classmates are, but as an adult you can choose to associate yourself only with positive people who build you up instead of tearing you down.
Difference is a defect. We all must meet the artificial Psych. Industry norm or Big Business won't be pleased and we will become outcasts.
Difference = bad. Being as close as possible to the "norm" = good.
Happiness is good, at least for me. If being happy makes me a conformist, I'm happy to be a conformist. You may do as you wish of course.
James Stouffer I've always said it's your scars that make you, well you. Be those mental or physical they mound you, for better or worse, for me it's the literal scars from the bullying (faint one on my face, and on my back) and the mental scars from my Anxiety, Depression and Attempted Suicide. But that's who I am, it's changed me, and I'd like to think for the better.
James Stouffer perfect!!! 👋
Marlene Holley i loved that song
Whatta tune!
Songs like this make me proud to say I'm a Newfoundlander.
Newfoundlander always!!!😁
They did an awesome job with this song at Marystown Come Home Year last year.
so proud to be from newfoundland and be part of this culture🇨🇦
Proud to be a newfoundlander, I'm a baymen
Weather videos 545 gotta love the bay
Nothing better than in the bay with a boat
Same her me buddy
I’m a townie and I wish you all the best
High school sure had it's ups and downs, but I think about how he says "for a while." Which would be pretty great. You could go back and evaluate how you saw things, handled situations, friends and romances but with the mind of a 26 year old (in my case). The power of being able to come back to the present day would have to be an option!!
awesome song!
Class of 2011! Cant believe weve came this far already! It seems like only yesterday we were running around beating the crap out of each other with pool noodles.. Good Luck too all of you who graduated this past year! Especially to the QE class!
I'm from Torbay (but don't hold that against me 😆)
And I can say first hand, this land is God's country.
Especially when you grew up in a little outport community like I did, it's like the whole town is one big family, we watch out for each other, we take care of each other, we genuinely care.
Which is hard to come by, especially in today's world.
love love love this song, eh
Love this song proud to be a Newfie
God bless home. be back some day
Beautiful music my friend ❤
Proud to be South Shore Irish Loop Newfoundlander!!
Brings Back Memories for sure. Living down the shore. God i hate town

Newfies are the exact opposite of venomous, how dare you .
please.. please man, double check your grammar when doing lyric videos, I love your effort and it's maybe just me but when I see you write to rather than two it gets to me, and you've done similar in other videos, It's hard not to bring it up, it's slightly cringe worthy. I'm sorry :(
don't get me wrong it's not putting me off watching your videos, we appear to have a similar taste in music, but I'm just giving you a tip for future, I just wanted to point that out, I'm not trying to be a dick
Fuck off
