The Town Where You Lived Lyrics & Tabs by The Once
The Town Where You Lived
guitar chords lyrics
I am drained cause its rained and it's rained
For the last 20 days it won't give
Up an inch no not one little ray from the son
On the face of the town where you lived
It's been years I've got hundreds more fears
And tried not to as much as I've tried
Giving way to the flood of my tears in the mud
On the ground of the town where you died
And of all of the streets that I have found
There is only one I have left to pound
That hasn't yet heard my feet make the sound
Of me taking the long way around
I have tried to be seen to be all that you've been
From the moment you came to this place
With your heart in your hand as a measure of man
I have tried to be seen to be all that you've been
From the moment you came to this place
With your heart in your hand as a measure of man
That the meek could not help but embrace
Theres a whispering shout that I cannot keep out
Saying you may not be up above
Though it makes me compare my relief and despair
I am left here with nothing but love
I am left here with nothing but
All of the time it takes to wait
For a cold call that can move your love to hate
All the beautiful things that the loneliness brings
When the living get turned to the late
I don't know if sunshine will make me fine
Or the memory of the way your hand held mine
so I'll sing about things that the loneliness brings
From now until the end of my time
So I'll sing about things that the loneliness brings from now until the end of my
Time
Time
Time
Time
Time
