Vanessa Carlton - Spring Street lyrics

rate me

I was heading down to Spring Street with a suitcase in my hand.

And filled with love and life and grand delusions, I knew you'd understand.

When I left you by the stairwell and your eyes were wet with tears.

Mother, you knew you had to let me go even after all these years.

And we sing Nah, nah-nah-nah, and she said. Nah-nah-nah-nah walk on.

Nah-nah nah, nah, you're alright nah-nah, nah, nah.

And I found myself a new life. and I've been living with some friends.

And we hold on to dreams and live like kings, like the days will never end.

And I left him by the statue and his eyes were filled with tears

Lover you knew you had to let me go even after all these years.

And we sing Nah-nah-nah, nah, and he said

Nah-nah, nah, nah, walk on.

Nah-nah, nah, nah, you're alright nah-nah, nah, nah.

And everything changes. and friends become strangers.

And what we hold so dear slips away.

The past keeps on fading, but I'll never forget you.

It's hard to see that you're a part of me,

even when we have to say.

Nah-nah, nah, nah, walkon

Nah-nah, nah, nah we sing

Nah-nah, nah, nah, well alright

Nah-nah, nah, nah.

And I moved out of the city to start a family of my own.

And when I look into my daughter's eyes, and I don't feel so alone

And as I walk her down to Spring Street. She holds onto my hand

Mother, you knew my eyes would be wet with tears and now I

Understand.

Nah-nah, nah, nah and I said

Nah-nah, nah, nah, walkon

Nah-nah, nah, nah thank you

Nah-nah, nah, nah, walkon. Alright.

Can’t hold on.
