This Town

This town, old town The place I spend my younger years The house that sheltered me from fear The only time I ever cried Is when I could not play This girl, my girl We met when I was just a lad A happiness we never had The only time that I was sad Was when I could not stay I run away from her To seek my fame Now that I found it Well, it's not the same This town, old town This place has washed upon the shore And here I am beside your door But you are gone forevermore Alone, me and the sea I run away from her To seek my fame Now that I found it Well, it's not the same This town, old town This place has washed upon the shore And here I am beside your door But I will stay forevermore Alone, me and the sea Alone, me and the sea Oh, ohhhh, oh, alone, alone, alone, alone, alone Alone, the sea
