Meredith Moon - I Loved That Town

“I Loved That Town” [language damn]

I was stranded in that town
Of which the travellers speak
Their words attempt to tear it down
But it’s recognition that they’re seeking
I hear it in their tone when they’re speaking
They say damn, I love that town

And that town let me in
It gave me home it gave me new beginnings
But I knew from the first day
That it could not last, could not sustain
But damn, I loved that town

Had everything a lady needs
Those who thrived in nature and those opposed greed
There were times when I swore I’d never leave
Nestled in a hillside, just Lake Superior and me
Damn, I loved that town

There were times when I’d leave down the road
Frustration rising in me, telling me to go
But I’d turn right back around
Thinking of it’s sweetness in every season, that I’d found
And I’d say damn, I love that town

But now the town is emptying out
The old retired north and the young ones headed south
And I’m not welcome to return
Seems as though the only bridge into town’s been burned
So I’ll set my eyes to the horizon
And just be glad I ever came around

But damn, I loved that town
Damn, I loved that town
Damn I loved that town
