This Town - Rotary Connection

This town, old town

The place I spent my younger years

The house that sheltered me from fear

The only time I ever cried

Was when I could not play

This girl, my girl

We met when I was just a lad

Unhappiness we never had

The only time that I was sad

Was when I could not stay

I went away from her to seek my fame

And now that I found it well it’s not the same

This town, old town

His face has washed upon the shore

And here I stand beside your door

But you are gone forevermore

Alone me and the sea

I went away from her to seek my fame

And now that I found it well it’s not the same

This town, this old town

His face has washed upon the shore

And here I stand beside your door

And I will stay forevermore

Alone me and the sea

Alone me and the sea…
