The Town Where You Live (Mel Street)
|
|
Twenty miles of memories
|
‘Til I pass right by your home
|
And I always wondered if you’re a little disturbed
|
As this big rig roars along
|
|
‘Cause I know you haven’t forgotten
|
When we had so much love to give
|
And that’s why I rather die than drive
|
Through the town where you live
|
|
I always noticed your two Cadilacs
|
And your twenty acre lawn
|
And that big house of stone and marble
|
Look so empty and so alone
|
|
And the tears they blur my vision
|
As I picture you there with him
|
And I’d rather drive a thousand miles around
|
The town where you live
|
|
I remember when you said
|
That a truck-drivin’ man
|
Couldn’t give you the things you desire
|
And your hands look better with diamonds
|
And you’d rather ride a chauffered driven car
|
|
Well I guess that tonight
|
You’ve got all these things
|
But are you missin’ the love I can give
|
If you are then Darlin’ be waiting when I pass
|
Through the town where you live
|
|
If you’re lonely then Darlin’ be waiting when I pass
|
Through the town where you live
|
