I have just now had the realization that this is my town not yours my town my ghosts that haunt me on these streets walks at night first kisses in the snow fast cars staying out past curfew first loves Jr. High High School and all that goes with it heartaches and triumphs my town not yours these streets hold my memories my childhood my secrets not yours. Skinned knees Skinned hearts this is where I found myself found myself lost myself ghosts of betrayal and affairs marriages ending motorcycle rides in the rain Christmas's Birthday's kisses in the dark this is my town not yours I grew up here my children grew up here. you you showed up here long after the fact Long after. Those are my memories imprinted on the brick covered streets The leaves in the fall They hold my secrets not yours Not your streets Not your leaves Not your secrets Not your town.... |
