Something About This Town

Back in the fields they painted gold Where every breath just feels like home The people may have changed To me it's still the same

Walking the streets that made this man Talking the tongue that I once had So clear I guess history writes itself here

Forget all the bright lights The towering skylines There's something about this town Where heaven is closer The weight off my shoulders There's something about this town And I can't change what I am made of now I guess there's something about this town

The faces are lost at Old John Bull's I guess the sands of time are cruel Somebody calls my name Wish I could do the same

Lights of the Grand Hotel's gone dark But stars seem to shine with a different spark So clear I guess history writes itself here

Forget all the bright lights The towering skylines There's something about this town Where heaven is closer The weight off my shoulders There's something about this town So people say that I have made it now I guess there's something about this town

I dream of colours that are evergreen Oh, whenever I'm southbound So please forgive sentimentality Oh, there's something about this town

So forget all the bright lights The towering skylines There's something about this town Where heaven is closer The weight off my shoulders There's something about this town And I can't change what I am made of now I guess there's something about this town
