|
Everybody packs their goals |
|
They sails away for better shores |
|
And I have seen times |
|
My sails have held a brilliant shine |
|
I hear tell that dreams come true |
|
Along these crowded avenues |
|
But, my peace of mind |
|
Is a place I go when I close my eyes |
|
And it's a hometown street |
|
Where the boys are pretty |
|
And a friend is still a friend |
|
It's a hometown street |
|
Where the love you're given |
|
Surely comes back 'round again |
|
Hometown streets are paved in gold |
|
With faces that you've always known |
|
But, you'll never see them |
|
Until you pack your dreams and leave them |
|
The one I loved has moved away |
|
It's hot in this city |
|
Hey, it's always late |
|
Here in this place |
|
Love doesn't get the time of day |
|
I need a hometown street |
|
Where the boys are pretty |
|
And a friend is still a friend |
|
I need a hometown street |
|
Where the love you're given |
|
Surely comes back 'round again |
|
And again, and again |
|
And again, and again |
|
I can't remember |
|
What I came here for |
|
I'm gonna pull up my anchor |
|
And sail for shore |
|
To a hometown street |
|
Where the boys are pretty |
|
And a friend is still a friend |
|
I need a hometown street |
|
Where the love you're given |
|
Surely comes back 'round again |
|
And again, and again, and again |
|
I need a hometown street |
|
Where the boys are pretty |
|
And a friend is still a friend |
|
I need a hometown street |
|
Where the love you're given |
|
Surely comes back 'round again |
|
And again, and again, and again |
|
Hey, I need a hometown street |
|
Hey, I need a hometown street |
|
Hey, I need a hometown street |
|
Hey, I need a hometown street |
