Your Town - Deacon Blue

I wouldn’t want to be you

Mostly not even near you

When you’re gone they will curse you

And raise the tide against you

I no longer care now

For what you said was fair now

I just don’t go there now

I just don’t go

Maybe there’s a way not to make it hurt

To cover up the words like you covered up the dirt

Ever since you left

It just gets worse

Living out in your town

Now let’s say it like it is

I just don’t know where to begin

It’s a different way of living

It’s so strange to what we’ve been

First we speak for ourselves now

And people know who we are now

And they wake up and they live now

Yes they wake up and they live

Maybe there’s a way not to let it hurt

Tell it out in pictures

And songs and words

Do what we should not

To make it worse

Living out in your town
