I walked these streets before I knew your name
Now you're by my side and nothing seems the same
Has everything been turned around or am I the one who changed
I walked these streets before I knew your name
I knew this town before I dreamed of you
Back when the whole place only came in shades of blue
Nowadays it seems that dreaming's all I ever do
I knew this town before I dreamed of you
On every street my memories unravel
There's a history down each winding avenue
These days the only roads I seem to travel
Are the ones that always bring me back to you
I walked these streets before I knew your name
Now you're by my side and nothing seems the same
Has everything been turned around or am I the one who changed
I walked these streets before I knew
