I will always go back to the side of the bay
Where the nights never seemed as long as the day
Dog collar army, we trembled before
Their Spires don't look so tall anymore
♪
Dad was always driving top of the road
Mum's in the doorway still thanking the lord
Green birds took 'em to the land of the free
When they were gone, it was all up to me
♪
These city lights don't shine like you say
The green, green grass is all turning to grey
You made this boy golden then turned him to stone
This is my home
You think I don't remember, but I do, but I do
You think I don't remember, but I do, yeah I do
No-one saw it coming 'til it was too late
But it was the young who would carry the weight
Shook hands with the mighty, for better or worse
Sometimes a blessing, sometimes a curse

These city lights don't shine like you say

But this is my home
You think I don't remember, but I do, yeah I do
You think I don't remember, but I do, yeah I do
Here's to my journey, I know who I am
As much as we fought, that was never the plan
I'm not the first and won't be the last
To go back to the Grove and we're always a class
You think I don't remember but I do, but I do
You think I don't remember but I do, but I do
You think I don't remember
You think I don't remember but I do
You think I don't remember but I do
You think I don't remember but I do
