It's been some time since we've been here The weather's fine and I don't mind if it rains I walk around and find it not the same Lucky thing we are together A lot has changed since we were ten There were people waving here way back when It used to be a crowded street Where lovers would often meet And walk down to (Walk down to) (Walk down to) (Walk down to) Escolta And walk down to (Walk down to) (Walk down to) (Walk down to) Escolta I partied here in '88 I bought my first Chucks here in '94 You would've found me in St. J's Dwarfed by dreams that I kept When I walked down to (Walk down to) (Walk down to) (Walk down to) Escolta Walked down to (Walk down to) (Walk down to) (Walk down to) Escolta A lonely signpost working (for several years) An age-old story I'll share (to the rest of the world) A generation untold (of what was it like) Of what was it like What was it like In Escolta I wish I had a toy camera And froze in time the colors of those days When the sun sets a golden hue On that alley where I first met you Where I first met you Where I first met you Where I first met you (Escolta)
