Marshall Crenshaw - Our Town - Текст песни

(M. Crenshaw) 

    

  I hear something in the sounds that surround me 

That only seems to remind me 

That I'm lost and longing for a different place and time 

I wanna be walking down the avenue 

Tall buildings staring down on me and you 

But all I have is pictures running through my mind 

CHORUS: 

Sunlight dying 

People rushing madly all around 

Sirens crying 

Gotta grab the next thing back to our town 

Before the whole thing crumbles to the ground 

Do you remember the promise I gave you? 

The one I swore I would hold to 

Well you're there, 

I'm here and everything I said was wrong 

So we're not out with the crowd nights 

Not walking under the bright lights 

All I can do is dream about it all night long. 

CHORUS: (as above) 

BRIDGE: 

It's the place where we keep our hopes and dreams 

The place where I lost my heart it seems 

All people looking for danger and romance 

Drop by there while you still have the chance 

'Cause it's all gonna tumble down 

It's gonna shake apart and crumble to the ground.
