Song Description

Our lives as they change

Lyrics

The Road Through Town

Long before I was a man
And left without much thought or plan
We played upon these fields
Of green and brown
Now those voices from the past
That some have said would never last
Well, they're as real to me as every other sound
Yes, there are ghosts along the road through town

At the corner of a wall
A tree had once grown straight and tall
In the Spring her flowers
Danced above the ground
If you look real good
You can tell where once she stood
But they cut my pretty tree right down
No, you won't find her on the road through town

Yes I sat here and I cried
As I called up these things inside
The home inside a house
We since have flown
The Autumn's colors once displayed
Surrounded ponds where children played
But the leaves have long since drifted to the ground
And now they blow across the road through town...
