Old Town Memories

[Verse] I was born in an old town Minnesota Where the cornfields stretch wide And the wine is glowing gold in the light In the city that knows pride [Verse 2] We'd run through the fields Bare feet on the ground Laughing till the sun went down Bicycles and dreams We had it all Small town life we just drowned [Chorus] Old town memories In my heart they stay From Minnesota's fields to the skies so gray Hold on to those days Never let them fade Old town memories In my heart they play [Verse 3] Broken roads and barns The sights we knew Echoes of a life so true Fireflies and starlit nights Just us two In our town Where love grew [Chorus] Old town memories In my heart they stay From Minnesota's fields to the skies so gray Hold on to those days Never let them fade Old town memories In my heart they play [Bridge] Time flies by But the past remains near Every laugh Every tear Old town people They fade away But their spirits in the fields sway [Verse] My old town a mess today Streets of mud and skies so gray Back in time we'd start to play 1897 bright as day [Verse 2] Horses trotting on cobblestone People laughing never alone Built this town with sweat and bone 1897 felt like home [Chorus] Oh those days so far away Wishing we had one more stay In the year so bright so gay 1897 lead the way [Verse 3] Markets bustling no delay Children running free all day Golden sunset ends our play 1897 memories lay [Bridge] Time rolled on it took its toll Changed our town but not our soul Hearts still beat just like the old 1897 never cold [Chorus] Oh those days so far away Wishing we had one more stay In the year so bright so gay 1897 lead the way
