Hometown Streets |
Everybody packs their goals |
And sails away for better shores |
I have seen times |
My sails have held a brilliant shine |
I hear tell that dreams come true |
Along these crowded avenues |
But, my peace of mind |
Is a place I go when I close my eyes |
I need a hometown street where the boys are pretty |
And a friend is still a friend |
I need a hometown street where the love you’re giving |
Surely comes back 'roubd again |
Hometown streets are paved in gold |
With faces that you’ve always known |
But, you’ll never see them |
Until you pack your dreams and leave them |
The one I loved has moved away |
It’s hot in this city |
Hey, it’s always late |
Here in this place |
Love doesn’t get the time of day |
Bridge |
I can’t remember what I came here for |
I’m gonna pull up my anchor and sail for shore |
