If you see him standing there
Just remember that he has had his share
From this town, he goes a long way back
And I remember everything
That smile on his face
It brings me back to a slower kind of place
He's just a man running away from everything
Yeah, he always had a story for me
Where you go when you grow old?
Well, I don't wanna go
You're not standing here
You've been gone for so long
I know that time won't bring you home, no
Well, I can't breathe here
Excuse me while I take this final bow
I don't wanna let you all down, no
But I just, I just, I just miss this town
Pass the corner home from work
Where he used to stand, no, he never said a word
He wouldn't hold his hands out for anything
Yeah, but he sure did love to sing
No one see's him there anymore
I learned a lot on the corner of that old liquor store
You see, the ghost in Niles has all gone and run away
Leaving nothing but a memory for me
Where you go when you grow old?
Well, you're not standing here
You've been gone for so long
I know that time won't bring you home, no
Well, I can't breathe here
Excuse me while I take this final bow
I don't wanna let you all down, no
But I just, I just, I just miss this town
Well, you're not standing here
You've been gone for so long
And time won't bring you home, no
See, I can't breathe here
Excuse me while I take this final bow
I don't wanna let you all down, no
But I just, I just, I just miss this town
