I know too well
I'll never find the same old town I left
The siren's song it sang no longer fills the air
But though my heart may fill with pity for its tired face
It is still the place for which
I really care
I long
to see the wondrous city of my youth
That seemed to hold my future and my truth
To walk along the strand
and taste the salty air
Feel again the magic spell that used to keep
me there
On summer days I'd often wander in the park
Or watch the light
fade slowly into dark
I'd hear the breaking
waves and gentle breezes sigh
Let my mind go free
and my
dreams reach high I know too well I'll never find the same old town
I left
The siren's song it sang no longer fills the air
But though my heart may fill with pity for its tired face
It is still the place for which I really care Where
streets were basking in the early light of spring
The golden glow
of autumn made me sing Life wasn't always good so how was I to know
At least it's so
Where streets were basking in the
early light of spring,
The golden glow of autumn made me sing.
Change must come, I know,
but still it's sad to see
How the years have changed,
both my town and me.
How the years have changed,
both my town and me.
How the years have changed,
both my town and me.
