Old Town Lyrics

A kid out on the corner with a look in their eye

Nobody's immune, everyone gets it when they go on by

They're looking for a way in or maybe a way out

Looking for a reason or a reason to doubt

For something new 'cause whatever they try

They're always looking in from the outside

A starlet with a suitcase, a little underdressed

For the style and the season, comes here for a reason and knows it ooh, just knows it

The city is alive with a spirit indeed

Full of hunger and desire because whatever you feed

There's always something more you need

To fill that hollow feeling

Old Town is where I wanna be

Old Town everyone's got their story

Two way traffic in one way streets

In Old Town

A playwright rolling silver on the patio

Mapping out lines when business turns slow

Who's gonna say you gotta reel it in

That you gotta give up that you gotta give in

That you gotta start contributing

Let go all your wasted dreaming

To fill that hollow feeling

Old Town is where I wanna be

Old Town everyone's got their story

Two way traffic in one way streets

In Old Town

Night will fall

Like the outer wall

The shadows reach out and lift you away

They'll lead you down the alleyways you've misunderstood

And whisper of brighter days you've long overlooked

A spark will catch your eye

A flame will take you down

There's no proof of anything

When daylight turns around in Old Town

Two way traffic in one way streets

In Old Town

In Old Town

In Old Town

Is where I wanna be
