COUPLET 1 Back to the streets we used to roam And turned into our playground, The only town we knew as boys Growing up side by side. I used to speak your voice And saw the world through your eyes. I hardly knew the difference Between your thoughts and mine. I know you’re waiting for me, Miles, I know you’ll never let me down. PONT On every doorstep, every corner, Every game we played, every story shared, Every bruise from every kids' fight, Every treehouse, A flood of memories coming back. In every street and every garden, Every cigarette shared in silence, Every stolen kiss, every school day, Every secret den, A flood of memories coming back. REFRAIN Through a haze of foggy daydreams I kept hearing you call. Through a maze of broken memories I kept seeing you fall. COUPLET 2 Between the hated blank walls I used to call my prison, They fed me pills at nightfall To quiet haunting visions. All through my sleepless nights, Your voice remained my beacon, Soothing me like a lullaby Singing of memories long gone. Tell me, who slept the longest, Miles? Who wept the longest through the nights? PONT On every street and every corner, Empty houses, silent windows, Dying trees and broken streetlamps, Rusty railings, Where’s the town we used to know? On every street and every corner, Dirty walls and lonely schoolyards, Whispering waters, rustling shadows, Faded sunlight, Where’s the town we used to know? REFRAIN Through a haze of foggy daydreams I kept hearing you call. Through a maze of broken memories I kept seeing you fall. PONT 2 Free at last to go, Free at last to join you now, Free at last to walk In this dead husk of a town. Free at last to roam Across this decaying shrine, This landscape of things gone To waste away with time. The old school is boarded up All our dens are empty now. But across the pavement, A trail of painted footsteps Beckons me, Miles, Beckons me to follow To the heart of town, To the bridge, the river, Like the ghost of a blood tie Calling out to me, calling out to me, Pleading me to join you there PONT 3 Once we were boys, once we were brothers, Once we shared secrets and games alike. Once we were boys, once we were brothers, Now I must walk without you by my side.
