‘No Longer My Town’
Today I found myself, talking to the mirror
Asking if there’s one reason to stay
I realise there’s no answer to the question
And I knew it’s time for me to move away
Day by day I’d feel, our love growing cold
You are no longer mine to have and hold
So on the next train out of town I’ll be leavin’
And as I walk away I’m feeling so damn old
Yeah I’m leavin’, it’s no longer my town
(yeah) I’m leavin’, It’s to late to turn around
You know I couldn’t stay and, watch you walk on by
Or to answer everybody asking why
It’ll be best for both of us if I’m long gone
And as that whistle blows I hear this lonesome song
Yeah I’m leavin’, it’s is no longer my town
(yeah) I’m leavin’, It’s to late to turn around
Yeah I’m leavin’, it’s is no longer my town
(yeah) I’m leavin’, It’s to late to turn around.
