about

It's been difficult finishing this, but we think we've just about got it right.

lyrics

I'd walk over the miles, once in a while to the station
They took down the bridge when we were kids
When we were young(er)

I'm with all of my friends and there is my girl in the corner
She's the one who said you're never young
You'll never be old(er)

The town I know (I don’t know)
Has all moved on (it’s all I know)
This town has gone, it's all I know

We’re all struggling to read there's no longer books in the library
My life is a mess coz the library's a crèche or something else

The fields have all gone there's nowt to be done
I've skinned all my knees on the 'astro'
The pain it still hurts, the blood and the dirt

The town I know (I don't know)
Has all moved on (it’s all I know)
This town has gone, it's all I know

Boys and girls and you and me
We have grown old, we have seen
The town I know (I don't know)
Has all moved on (it’s all I know)
