Lyrics

THIS TOWN
Terrence Hart

[VERSE]
I remember some time many years ago
When the roads were quiet everywhere I’d go
When the fields stretched wide far as I could see
When the children were playin’ so peacefully

[PRE-CHORUS]
Seems like the sun’s got a little brighter
Feels like the water’s got a bit more colder
Seems like the time passes way more faster
Feels like I ain’t gettin’ any younger

[CHORUS]
This town keeps growin’ on me
I’m right where I wanna be
This town’s like no other place
It puts a smile on my face
This town’s like sweet love song
It got my heart beatin’ strong

[VERSE]
Now the streets are filled, voices in the air
Neon lights are shinnin’, music everywhere
Still, the old oak stands where it used to be
A reminder of all that it means to me

[CHORUS]
This town keeps growing on me
I’m right where I wanna be
This town’s like no other place
It puts a smile on my face
This town’s like a sweet love song
It got my heart beating strong

[VERSE]
When my time has come, I’ll be on my way
I’ll still hear the laughter, all the songs we’d play
There’s a magic here, nothing can replace
In my heart this town, always have a place

[PRE-CHORUS]
Seems like the sun’s got a little brighter
Feels like the water’s got a bit more colder
Seems like the time passes way more faster
Feels like I ain’t gettin’ any younger

[CHORUS]
This town keeps growing on me
I’m right where I wanna be
This town’s like no other place
It puts a smile on my face
This town’s like a sweet love song
It got my heart beating strong

This town
This town
