Took a walk out to the side of town To a street I used to know Past the place they tore the factory down Where the lonesome people go Caught my eye as she was standing there Taking in the evening glow There was promise on the April air And it was all I'd ever known Then she told me Small town living leaves you lonely Won't you turn around and hold me? Silhouettes across the sky Met her first beside the station wall She was a passing midnight train Destination was a curtain call Empty pavement in the rain Then she told me Small town living leaves you lonely Won't you turn around and hold me? Silhouettes across the sky Then she told me Small town living leaves you lonely Won't you turn around and hold me? Silhouettes across the sky Pages turn like you're twenty-one And you're serenading roses in the rain When I think about her now It's good to know a drink will numb the pain There's a season surely coming 'round Colours turning in the trees We'll be leaving from this sleeping town Sailing freely on the breeze She told me Small town living leaves you lonely Won't you turn around and hold me? Silhouettes across the sky She told me Small town living leaves you lonely Won't you turn around and hold me? Silhouettes across the sky Silhouettes across the sky Silhouettes across the sky
