Long ago, but not so very long ago

The world was different, oh yes it was

You settled down and you built a town and made it liveAnd you watched it grow, it was your town

Time goes by, time brings changes, you change too

Nothing comes that you can′t handle, so on you go

You never see it coming when the world caves in on you

On your town, there's nothing you can do

Main street isn′t main street anymore

Lights don't shine as brightly as they shone before

Tell the truth, lights don't shine at all

In our town

Sun comes up each morning, just like it′s always done

Get up, go to work, start the day

You open up for business that′s never gonna come

As the world rolls by a million miles away

Main street isn't main street anymore

No one seems to need us like they did before

It′s hard to find a reason left to stay

But it's our town, love it anyway

Come what may, it′s our town
