Blue Rodeo - This Town lyrics

rate me

Walking through these empty streets this town is dead<br />

Rain is coming harder now upon your head<br />

You can't get far enough away<br />

What's it matter anyway You never win <br />

<br />

They handed you a map to show you where to go<br />

Gave you everything but what you need to know<br />

You know your friends enough to say<br />

Where they'll be on any day<br />

Come what may <br />

<br />

Surprise surprise The morning sun is in your eyes<br />

Get up throw that life away<br />

Yesterday is yesterday And lies they lied<br />

They said you get what you deserve in life<br />

But that's just not the way it seems You end up living someone else's dreams<br />

It's true It follows you around You don't have to love this town <br />

<br />

Friday night beneath the bridge just one more time<br />

You wish that you could leave this dirty town behind<br />

There never seems to be a way<br />

Hold on for another day<br />

You will find <br />

<br />

Surprise surprise<br />

The sun that hits your lonely eyes<br />

It wipes out every other day<br />

Yesterday is yesterday<br />

And lies they lied<br />

It's not what you deserve it's what you try and try and try again Failing's just a step along the way<br />

It's true There's no one here for you In time you wait and you will find<br />

The ones who never let you down<br />

You don't have to love this town
