Oh I was standing in the the road For the first time in several years I closed my eyes cos just a terrible sight And my teenage days started to reappear I want to take a walk down a shady lane Where your love first hit me I was standing in the middle of a new estate And I observed the location of my first kiss I'm back in my hometown Well did you see that girl That just walked by She was once a flame of mine She's wearing casual slacks and a CMA mac And if I looked in disbelief She's a-looking back Yeah, back in my hometown That finger hole was just a picture house It was a place for your lovers to go Well If you took a date there You never saw the show But you could take her all the way We used to dance all night At the river flat hall Where the ferry boats answer the But it never set sail On a first hand gale I fell in love with a Parisian lady I'm back in my hometown Yeah back in my hometown Yeah back in my hometown I'm back in my hometown
