lyrics

i miss the sound the sidewalk made
as my footsteps found the shade
on the pavement,
made of grey
i’d walk down in that alleyway.

i miss the way the breeze blew on my face
as i walked down Adelaide
to meet friends and faces, for granted i’d take them
because i thought they’d always stay
like bill murray in groundhog day
in a place that’s not supposed to change

past the place i used to roam
so many years ago
see the way the garden’s grown
alongside of that corner store
down memory lanes and old faithfuls
i claimed i’d never again go
are a million names i’ll never know
because this ain’t my home no more

i miss the way the walls were stained
yellowed by sun and rays
of the bedroom where my head would lay
away from the yell of this city’s subways and trains

i miss how late i’d stay out for
getting headaches in the morn
i miss the taste of hangovers brought over
by the older kids next door
then staying in bed to rest my head
replaying each phrase that i said to them
