Found myself in the lost and found
Didn't know which way was up or down I heard a sound
Knew where I was but I'd lost my way
My head was spinning and the night was day
Had a drink took a walk had a smoke
I felt unreal and I started to choke - o oh no no
I started running and I don't know why
Something was coming and I feared for my life
Took a trip down to yesterday
But everyone I knew had changed or moved away
The city streets that I know so well
Were filled with aliens from another world
I fell into that dream again
The sun was bright and I didn't feel this way
You were there in market place
Dressed to kill with a grin on your face
And the people kept passing on by
Each one a zombie with those lifeless eyes
On every avenue down every street
I feel you right there walkin' next to me
It's like our footsteps click and meet
Hey do ya see why?
I could never leave this town
I found a photograph the other day
Taken before the digital came to stay
Crammed into that photo booth
Three of us screamin' cos we could not move
My teenage self staring back at me
Searching for something he could not see - no way
What's goin' on behind those eyes
Not much I guess, but it made me cry
I took me back to those early days
We laughed and danced and fought and played
We loved and screwed and ran away
The lines were drawn and you never strayed
Sixteen skins chasin' our after our hides
We hid up the alley where the homeless now reside
We laughed so hard when they passed us by
Same place, strange faces, different times
And the river keeps rollin' by
Waters flow beneath the Bridge of Sighs
On every avenue down every street
I feel you right there walkin' next to me
It's like our footsteps click and meet
Hey do ya see why
I could never leave this town
Every bar or cafe I walk into
You're hanging out there like we used to do
The names have changed above the doors
But we were here before
I could never leave this town
You know I'm never gonna let you down
I'll see you around
I could never leave this town
