This Town

This town old town

The place I spend my younger years

The house that sheltered me from fear

The only time I ever cried

Was when I could not play

This girl my girl

We met when I was just a lad

A happiness we never had

The only time that I was sad

Was when I could not stay

I run away from her

To seek my fame

Now that I found it

Well it's not the same

This town old town

This place has washed upon the shore

And here I am beside your door

But you are gone forevermore

Alone me and the sea

I run away from her

To seek my fame

Now that I found it

Well it's not the same

This town old town

This place has washed upon the shore

And here I am beside your door

But I will stay forevermore

Alone me and the sea

Alone me and the sea

Oh ohhhh oh
