My Town - Emily Burns

The streets are singin' a broken promise

Flickerin' lights that have been forgotten

Maybe you think that nobody’s home yet

A city you’d love if you came any closer

Scribbled onto these walls

Are messages from before

From people that come and go

Through like a travelling show

Nobody stays for long

In my town, in my town

Nobody’s rushin' at nine in the morning

And nobody’s worried about where you’re going

Happy or sad with no expectation

If you wanna visit we’ll meet at the station

Scribbled onto these walls

Are messages from before

From people that come and go

Through like a travelling show

Nobody stays for long

In my town, in my town

Mmm, just visitors in the night

Mmm, just strangers and passers-by

People, they come and go

Through like a travelling show

Nobody stays for long

So please could you be the one

Who stays till the morning sun?

In my town, in my town
