This Town - Danny Pynes

Waking up to kiss you and nobody's there The smell of your perfume still stuck in the air It's hard Yesterday I thought I saw your shadow running 'round It's funny how things never change in this old town So far From the stars And I want to tell you everything The words I never got to say the first time around And I remember everything From when we were the children playing in this fairground Wish I was there with you now If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you I saw that you moved on with someone new In the pub that we met he's got his arms around you It's so hard So hard And I want to tell you everything The words I never got to say the first time around And I remember everything From when we were the children playing in this fairground Wish I was there with you now If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you You still make me nervous when you walk in the room Them butterflies, they come alive when I'm next to you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you I know that it's wrong That I can't move on But there's something 'bout you If the whole world was watching, I'd still dance with you Drive highways and byways to be there with you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you You still make me nervous when you walk in the room Them butterflies, they come alive when I'm next to you Over and over the only truth Everything comes back to you Everything comes back to you

City lights are pointing at me I close my eyes to see what you see Smoke cleared it took my breath away I crossed all seven different oceans To gather every perfect moment The brightest stars are falling down Oh love it's easy You should believe me Tonight the land of the lost belongs to me Running with my eyes shut somewhere in between In this town This town Miles away But still around Feeling the sun beneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around City lights are trying to catch me Open my eyes to see the beauty Falling stars are coming alive Oh love it's easy You should believe me In this town This town Miles away but still around Feeling the sun beneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around Black and white Blinding lights Here inside With me tonight Tonight the land of the lost belongs to me Running with my eyes shut somewhere in between In this town This town Miles away but still around Feeling the sun bneath all the gravity Finding my way to you till you find me This town This town Never gone back around This town This town

Tell me babe Wanna leave this town I'm saying Love her if you wanna go I'm down (I'm down) Cuz darling we were made for bigger things (Bigger things) And this place keeps killing our dreams Let's go love I'm saying ain't you tired of waiting We could leave this whole place behind Let's go love I'm saying ain't you tired of waiting We could leave this whole place behind Tell me babe Do you wanna stay I'm so fucked up And I'm fading away (Fading away) See I got nothing to do but chill But i think that you could be real Losing myself over you I mean I've got nothing better to do (I-I-I) I just want you (I-I-I) To come through and (I-I-I) Put me back together See I remember days like that And I remember times when I had your ass like Like that Like that Like that Yeah your love is a conflict Locked up like convict And these problems are chronic But just say the word I'll solve it Tired of your ways Send another text I'll be over soon Pull up to my place Open up the door And come up to my room Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Oh my god Now you see naturally There's nobody like me (Nobody like me) There's no one like me (Nobody like me) I'll set you free

This town is a lonely town Not the only town like-a this town This town is a make-you town Or a break-you-town and bring-you-down town This town is a quiet town Or a riot town like this town This town is a love-you town And a shove-you-down and push-you-'round town This town is an all-right town For an uptight town like-a this town This town, it's a use-you town An abuse-you town until-you're-down town This town is a losin' town It's a miserable town It's a nowhere town And I am leavin' this town You better believe that I'm leavin' this town Man, it could never be uptown It's bound to be downtown This town, bye-bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye-bye

You're dead, but the world keeps spinning Take a spin through the world you left It's gettin' dark a little too early Are you missing the dearly bereft? Takin' flight and you could be here tomorrow Takin' flight, well, you could get here tonight (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) What? I'm gonna fly on down, then fly away Well, all right Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down Takin' a spin through the neighborhood The neighbors scream, "Whatchya talking 'bout?" 'Cause they don't know how to let you in And I can't let you out What if I was not your only friend in this world? Can you take me where you're goin' if you're never comin' back? (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) I'm gonna fly on down then fly away, on my way Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down Why don't we take a ride, away, up high through the neighborhood? Up over the billboards and the factories and smoke (I'm gonna fly on down for the last stop through this town) Yeah! I'm gonna fly on down, then fly away on my way Fly away Get down Get, get, get down Get down, now Get, get, get down Get down

I want you on me Like small town cops I wanna get caught So you can lock me away And throw away the key And yeah you've got me Now you can call all the shots Take all I've got Yeah, you can keep me in chains 'Cause I'd be a criminal If it means getting close to you I'll do the time Give me 20 to life Oh, I would be a killer for you And it felt like you shot me When you stole my heart You broke all the laws With a kiss in the night Now the crime is only passion Throw the book at me I'm guilty of all I'm charged Do the long hard walk With you by my side If you'll be my criminal My sweet little Peggy Sue My partner in crime Doing 20 to life Oh, I would be a killer for you On a runaway highway In a stolen car Two love outlaws In a blue light haze Put your hands up in the air I said nobody move 'Cause I'd be a criminal If it means getting close to you I'll do the time Give me 20 to life Oh, I would be a killer for you If you'll be my criminal My sweet little Peggy Sue My partner in crime Doing 20 to life Oh, I would be a killer for you

I take a bullet ride down Brighton Beach I pick a package right up off the street I sing a song about love, Tennessee There's 'bout a million places I could be I know the sunny side seems out of reach When all your skinny friends keep losing teeth I know the pretty things they ain't for me There's 'bout a million things I'd rather be Maybe the good life and me and you we ain't such a good match All the chips are stacked We keep coming last Maybe we were born bad Like a sign of the times Maybe we were born bad There's no reason or rhyme You keep a bullet tied tight 'round your neck In case a couple things ain't happened yet You got a killer frame, your silhouette And 'bout a million dreams inside your head No, I can't sing you back, can't write a check And I ain't out of love, ain't out of debt It's all the little things I can't forget It's 'bout a million things I should have said Maybe the good life and me and you we ain't such a good match All the chips are stacked We keep coming last Maybe we were born bad Like a sign of the times Maybe we were born bad There's no reason or rhyme Sometimes star-crossed kids never catch a break Hard times follow wherever you go Don't let the flame inside ever die away Hold on tight, girl, don't ever lose hope Maybe the good life and me and you we ain't such a good match All the chips are stacked We keep coming last Maybe we were born bad Like a sign of the times Maybe we were born bad There's no reason or rhyme

I know a place those neon lights and that open sign in that window They look like stained glass shining on a midnight summer's eve Where that old holy spirit knows my name Old number 7 flows like rain And man you know where I go to forgive me Come Sunday morning you won't see me around These holy night hangovers hang me up Coming down 'Cause it's Saturday night when I see the light My people rolling in This place is 'bout as close to God that I've been 'Cause honey, I'm born again when you hold my hand And the band plays all those hymns I know when life gets hard I got God, this bar and my friends I'm going to Midnight Mass again There ain't no judgement day, no throwing stones in here Just a barkeep pouring vibes and bending ears On this old barroom stool you still find room For wayward souls like me and you Mother Mary, say a prayer for me dear Come Sunday morning you won't see me around These holy night hangovers hang me up Coming down 'Cause it's Saturday night when I see the light My people rolling in This place is 'bout as close to God that I've been 'Cause honey, I'm born again when you hold my hand And the band plays all those hymns I know when life gets hard I got God, this bar and my friends I'm going to Midnight Mass again Well, Oh lord I'm going to Midnight Mass again Going to Midnight Mass again And we're throwing 'em down And I'm going to town Well you know Where I go Let me go 'Cause it's Saturday night when I see the light My people rolling in This place is 'bout as close to God that I've been 'Cause honey, I'm born again when you hold my hand And the band plays all those hymns I know when life gets hard I got God, this bar and my friends I'm going to Midnight Mass again Well, Oh lord I'm going to Midnight Mass again Well, Oh lord Going to Midnight Mass again And we're throwing 'em down And I'm going to town Well you know Where I go Let me go
