lyrics

GEORGE STREET

I’m walking on George street with my feelings mixed,
I thought that by now this whole chasm would be fixed,
I know this is your place, and so it shall be,
But I had to come here just to set myself free,

And you spoke much about it so it’s always been dear,
And I’ve come full of memories, though it’s my first time here,
And all I can do, boy, is sit by this pier
And send you my love, hon, and shed us a tear,

And it’s not that I’m worried, I know it’s alright,
Time keeps moving I can’t put up a fight,
I’m not gonna win it, and if I’m gonna lose,
I might as well try not to carry these blues.

I’ll always love you, hope you’re doing ok,
But as much as I can I’ll stay out of your way,
I came to George Street to get you off my mind,
But I guess that you’re staying and I guess that’s just fine

It’s not that I’m worried, I know it’s alright,
Time keeps moving, I can’t put up a fight,
I’m not gonna win it, and if I’m gonna lose,
I might as well try not to carry these blues…
