Jackie K - Burnage Lane

In forty years, our poplars had grown so tall right past the roof
With a canopy of leaves over the path
Sparkles of sunshine, on those warm prairie days
The beauty of this place, Burnage Lane
Grant me my wish, I'll never live anywhere else
Grant me my wish, that here I'll always stay
Let me grow old watching the sunshine, light up the place I love
My heart and soul will always be Burnage Lane
Piles of shoes at the front door, from kids, their kids and more
Searching for refuge, from city life
Chairs on the front porch, the sweet smell of sage
I grew up on Burnage Lane
So, grant me my wish, I'll never live anywhere else
Grant me my wish, that here I'll always stay
Let me grow old watching the sunshine, light up the place I love
My heart and soul will always be Burnage Lane
The clock chimes every hour and time keeps passing by
Things move slower, grow more quiet, as I start to say goodbye
Leaves have turned brown again and the night is filled with rain
I will always love Burnage Lane
Here I am a child again, I run through fields of green
With laughter ringing out, like singing of birds
Let me be a child again, I'm feeling wild and free
Full of love and free from pain
Beauty and joy at Burnage Lane
