Lyrics
'Hometown Boy' You was a hometown boy My heart was somewhere else I turned n' left you there You always could take care of yourself Now you're climbin' high N' I'm here on the break Lookin' at the sky Seem's I'm just too late An' it's easier to fake A smile can hide the heartache But I don't know the way I don't know the way To take you away from her I ain't got what it takes To take you away from her I'd give all I had And it wouldn't be enough Well I guess that's just what happens When you love... I'll get over you Good Lord says I will Don't keep lookin' back Cos I'm just standin' still You're meant for better things Always thought you were N' she's inside your heart Well I ain't a match for her Now you don't need my hand You sure got all you want There's things I needed once But dreams are all long gone... I see your smile is wide Does it cover up the pain Is there nothin' left inside Nothin' left to gain © Maria Daines/Paul Killington  18.6.04
