Blue Rodeo This Town Lyrics

This Town Lyrics

Walking through these empty streets

this town is dead

Rain is coming
harder now upon your head

You can't get far enough away

What's it
matter anyway

You never win



They handed you map to show you


where to go

Gave you everything but what you

need to
know

You know your friends enough to say

Where they'll be on any
day

Come what may



Surprise surprise

The morning sun is
in your eyes

Get up throw that life away

Yesterday is yesterday 

And lies they lied

They said you get what you deserve in life

But
that's just not the way it seems

You end up living someone else's
dreams

It's true

It follows you around

You don't have to love
this town



Friday night beneath the bridge

just one more
time

You wish that you could leave this 

dirty town behind

There never seems to be a way

Hold on for another day

You will
find



Surprise surprise

The sun that hits your lonely
eyes

It wipes out every other day

Yesterday is yesterday 

And
lies they lied

It's not what you deserve

It's what you try and try
and try again

Failing's just a step along the way

It's true

There's no one here for you

In time you wait and you will find

The ones who never let you down

You don't have to love this town
