The streets are singin' a broken promise Flickerin' lights that have been forgotten Maybe you think that nobody's home yet A city you'd love if you came any closer Scribbled onto these walls Are messages from before From people that come and go Through like a travelling show Nobody stays for long In my town, in my town Nobody's rushin' at nine in the morning And nobody's worried about where you're going Happy or sad with no expectation If you wanna visit we'll meet at the station Scribbled onto these walls Are messages from before From people that come and go Through like a travelling show Nobody stays for long In my town, in my town Mmm, just visitors in the night Mmm, just strangers and passers-by People, they come and go Through like a travelling show Nobody stays for long So please could you be the one Who stays till the morning Sun? In my town, in my town
