|
People they come and people go |
|
Headed to who knows where |
|
All up and down that long highway |
|
Until they disappear |
|
The grass is greener on the other side |
|
Or so they all believe |
|
But I'm looking out a different window |
|
I'm planted like a tree |
|
I love this old town, I love the old sounds |
|
Church bells ringing and a midnight train |
|
And I'll stay as unchanged |
|
As tin roofs and rain |
|
Sincerely I remain |
|
And when I leave I always come back |
|
To the arms that hold me tight |
|
With the ones that I love gathered around me |
|
My shelter from the storms of life |
