A haunting song about returning to a hometown filled with memories and ghosts.
Verse 1
It's always going to be for me St. Lawrence, St. Lawrence
Because you got California Avenue
All along down Newland Circle Hill
I'm going to have a look and see
What ghosts are out there still
On the corner, in the morning
Verse 2
I could see it written all over your face that morning
You were never coming back to this place
I could see it in your eyes
You were saying goodbye
But I swear I saw you yesterday
In the crosswalk babe, you looked the same.
Chorus
She said, she said they're your own ghosts
You keep on feeding them
She said, she said they follow you around the town
Verse 3
It's always going to be for me St. Lawrence
I never thought I'd move back to this town
And now it seems I can't escape
And every time I go out driving around
There's ghosts coming out all over the place
Ghosts coming out all over the place
One at a time
Outro
That's why it's always going to be for me St. Lawrence
Saint Peter take me back from these gates
There's a place, there's a place
And it's called St. Lawrence
Because you've got California Avenue
All along down Newland Circle Hill
I'm going have a look and see
What ghosts are out there still
On the corner in the morning.
