Wessex Boy (Live Version)
Let me tell you all a little story of the things I've found Hanging out and drinking with my friends in the cathedral grounds And later dodging drunks as we dance along Jury Street As we wander uptown to the railway, our friends to meet
There's something about coming back to your hometown again The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends And though none of them still live here, I've got nowhere to go I'm a Wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
Let me tell you all a little story of the things I've lost Huddling for warmth on the top step of the Buttercross Sitting on the benches by the s at the riverside Counting down the hours for the buses 'cause I missed my ride
There's something about coming back to your hometown again The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends And though none of them still live here and I've got nowhere to go Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I'm a Wessex boy, a Wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
And one day I will hear this song, anonymous and sweet Ringing out from a buskers guitar in the ancient city streets I'll buzz a while and smile before I continue on along And somebody else will sing the words and I'll feel like I'm home
There's something about hometowns you never can escape The triumphs and the tragedies The welling of nostalgia and the feeling's kind of strange 'Cause despite the little changes, yeah, this place still feels the same
There's something about coming back to your hometown again The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends And though none of them still live here but I've got nowhere to go I'm a Wessex boy, I'm a Wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
