Our Town

In our town by the water everything's older

the winters are colder than anything i've ever seen

so close your eyes and hold on

i'll button my sweater throw on your jacket let's take a walk down

to the riverside lakeshore drive

we're waiting for the sun

but summer will never come

we're waiting for the sun

but here comes the rain

here comes the rain

here comes the rain

seems we've been here forever

grown up together

now i've got to go away

dont try to follow me now

just close your eyes and hold on

post cards and letters sending

love along the wire a warm christmas fire

this is our town and she's beautiful tonight

we're waiting for the sun

but summer will never come

we're waiting for the sun

but here comes the rain

here comes the rain

here comes the rain

if i could be there tonight

this song would never sing

these notes would never ring inside your ears

making it clear that i'm missing

something

if i could be there tonight

if i could i would try

if i could be anywhere else

but where i stand now i would move

would move closer to you

closer to you

closer to you

closer
