Lyrics
Kentish Town
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The street where you lived
Houses all gone
Run down state
Where once was your home
I found the church where you went
And i stood where you stood
It didn't feel the same
But i came back again
I knew i would
It sounds like the country
If you did enough
Here all around me
My family ghosts
Each day i walk up this hill
The one you took to the fair
And i imagine you there
I see your hair
It's too long ago now
To be undone
A second [incomprehensible]
Once gone is gone
I pushed open the door
And i stood where you stood
I tried not to blink
And i tried not to think
I had one more drink
I knew i would
