Back in Your Town
by
Loudon Wainwright III
Back
Lyrics
I'm back in your town, I'm walkin' around Crossin' the street, unsure on my feet And I'm carefully lookin' around Because I'm back in your town I'm back in this burg. Oh, haven't you heard? I better look to the right, double decker just might Hit me when I step off the curb That's why I'm back in this burg Yes and I'm back in that place. Last time I left with hardly a trace Now that I have returned ask me what I have learned Go ahead and take a look on my face I'm back in that place You'll leave someone behind and you think you won't mind it Till you go back and find you still care Yeah, you're back where you started, undermined, outsmarted By a feeling you thought wasn't there It's still there. You know I walked right past your house feeling like a refugee and a louse You were at home but you were not alone You were there with your kids and your spouse I walked right past your house Yes, and I'm feeling bereft, I'm feeling like I never even left Everything's changed but is the same It's still all here but nothin' is left I'm feeling bereft You'll leave someone behind and you think you won't mind it Till you go back and find you still care Yeah, you're back where you started, undermined, outsmarted By a feeling you thought wasn't there I'm back in your town, I'm walkin' around Crossin' the street, unsure on my feet And I'm carefully lookin' around Hey, I'm back in your town
