People they come and people go Headed to who knows where All up and down that long highway Until they disappear The grass is greener on the other side Or so they all believe But I'm looking out a different window I'm planted like a tree I love this old town, I love the old sounds Church bells ringing and a midnight train And I'll stay as unchanged As tin roofs and rain Sincerely I remain And when I leave I always come back To the arms that hold me tight With the ones that I love gathered around me My shelter from the storms of life
