Something About This Town
Back in the fields they painted goldWhere every breath just feels like homeThe people may have changedTo me it's still the same
Walking the streets that made this manTalking the tongue that I once hadSo clearI guess history writes itself here
Forget all the bright lightsThe towering skylinesThere's something about this townWhere heaven is closerThe weight off my shouldersThere's something about this townAnd I can't change what I am made of nowI guess there's something about this town
The faces are lost at Old John Bull'sI guess the sands of time are cruelSomebody calls my nameWish I could do the same
Lights of the Grand Hotel's gone darkBut stars seem to shine with a different sparkSo clearI guess history writes itself here
Forget all the bright lightsThe towering skylinesThere's something about this townWhere heaven is closerThe weight off my shouldersThere's something about this townSo people say that I have made it nowI guess there's something about this town
I dream of colours that are evergreenOh, whenever I'm southboundSo please forgive sentimentalityOh, there's something about this town
So forget all the bright lightsThe towering skylinesThere's something about this townWhere heaven is closerThe weight off my shouldersThere's something about this townAnd I can't change what I am made of nowI guess there's something about this town
